In China's foreign exchange market system, RMB funds are liquidated at two levels, that is, each sub-center is responsible for the liquidation among local members, and the general center is responsible for the balance liquidation of each sub-center. RMB funds shall be settled through RMB account opened in China People's Bank. The first-level liquidation of foreign exchange funds is implemented, that is, the general center is responsible for the liquidation among members.
