Hong Kong creates reference rate for offshore yuan markets

HONG KONG - The Hong Kong Monetary Authority said on Thursday it would launch an interbank reference rate for the offshore yuan market (CNH) in June, a long-awaited move that will facilitate the creation of more hedging options for those investing or trading in the currency.
