The central parity rate of the Chinese currency renminbi, or the yuan, weakened 24 pips to 6.8373 against the U.S. dollar Friday, according to the China Foreign Exchange Trade System.
In China's spot foreign exchange market, the yuan is allowed to rise or fall by 2 percent from the central parity rate each trading day.
The central parity rate of the yuan against the U.S. dollar is based on a weighted average of prices offered by market makers before the opening of the interbank market each business day.

A Chinese representative to the United Nations on Thursday called on the United States to fulfill its financial obligations as a state party to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) and to pay its outstanding dues.
The urging came during the 2026 NPT Review Conference, which reviewed and adopted its cost-sharing arrangement on Thursday.
"China believes that states parties should pay their dues for the Review Conferences of the NPT and related meetings in full and on time. We commend all states parties that have already fulfilled their payment obligations. We hope that the United States will, in accordance with the current scale of assessments, promptly pay the outstanding 420,000 U.S. dollars it owes for the current Review Conference, and earnestly fulfill its financial obligations as a state party," said the Chinese representative.
