[China's weight in the FTSE World Government Bond Index rises to 11.9%] On October 26, reporters recently learned from FTSE Russell that in the September index overview of the FTSE World Government Bond Index (WGBI), China accounted for 11.9% of the index in terms of weight, making it the second largest government bond market after the United States. The inclusion of Chinese bonds in the index is a landmark event in the opening up of China's financial market. As the weight of Chinese government bonds in international indices has steadily increased, global investors are increasingly viewing them as an important tool to diversify portfolio risks. Industry insiders believe that against the background of rising uncertainty in the international environment, China's bond market has shown strong resilience; at the same time, the infrastructure construction of the RMB capital market continues to deepen, and the willingness of overseas institutions to allocate RMB assets has further increased.
