“One of the discussions that the members of the IMF — i.e., the 188 member countries — are going to have to decide on is whether or not to enlarge that basket to eventually add the yuan as well, and that discussion will take place in November,” the spokesman confirmed.
The SDR currencies together act as the international currency reserve. The value of the international reserve is currently set by the US dollar, Japanese yen, the British pound, and the euro.
