Goldman Sachs estimate new foreign-investor flows of up to $250bn into China bond market

Bloomberg is to add Chinese bonds to its Bloomberg Barclays Global Aggregate Index next year

I don't know if this got a run on ForexLive on Friday, but in case not:

• Bloomberg plans to add yuan-denominated bonds over a 20-month period starting in April 2019
• Chinese bonds are set to make up 5.49% of the $53.73 trillion index once fully added
• Will make the yuan the fourth-biggest currency in the benchmark after the U.S. dollar, euro and Japanese yen

GS ppreviously estimated the move could eventually trigger foreign-investor flows of up to $250 billion into China's bond market
