Chinese Yuan to Euro exchange rate history
About the Chinese Yuan
The Chinese Yuan (CNY, ¥) is the unit of the broader Renminbi currency system, issued by the People's Bank of China since 1948. The two names sometimes confuse newcomers: Renminbi (literally "people's currency") refers to the currency as a system, while yuan is the unit in which prices are quoted — both terms describe the same money. Two ISO codes circulate: CNY for the onshore mainland-traded yuan and CNH for the offshore yuan traded primarily in Hong Kong, which sometimes diverges modestly from the onshore rate. The PBOC operates a managed-float regime: a daily mid-point is set against the dollar and the market is permitted to trade within a roughly 2% band around it. For Africa, the yuan has become one of the most strategically important non-G3 currencies. China-Africa bilateral trade reached approximately $348 billion in 2025, up around 17% year-on-year, with Nigeria, South Africa, Angola, Egypt and Kenya as the largest counterparties. In April 2026, Ecobank confirmed negotiations with the Bank of China to launch direct local-currency-to-yuan settlement across its 35 African markets, signalling a structural move away from US-dollar intermediation for African importers paying Chinese suppliers. Note that the ¥ symbol is shared with the Japanese yen — context matters when reading a number.
About the Euro
The Euro (EUR, €) is the official currency of 20 European Union member states and the anchor of one of the most consequential fixed-peg arrangements in African monetary history. The Euro is issued by the European Central Bank in Frankfurt and is the second-largest reserve currency after the USD. Two African monetary unions — the West African Economic and Monetary Union (UEMOA / XOF) and the Central African Economic and Monetary Community (CEMAC / XAF) — peg their CFA francs to the EUR at the fixed rate of 655.957 CFA = 1 EUR. The peg has been in continuous operation since the 1999 introduction of the Euro, and replaced the prior French franc peg. For diaspora remitters in France, Belgium, Italy, Spain, Portugal and Germany, the EUR is the dominant send currency for the WAEMU and CEMAC corridors.
