Abstract
We analyze the motives for China’s campaign to secure the addition of its currency, the renminbi, to the basket of currencies comprising the International Monetary Fund’s Special Drawing Rights. Our argument is that the campaign to add the renminbi to the SDR basket was not just a vanity project; it was a strategy used by the advocates of financial liberalization in China to force the pace of reform. It was also a strategy with significant risks.
