- China lags the US in financial power, expert argues
Financial Times columnist Ruchir Sharma argues that despite China's military and economic strength, the US maintains superior financial power through dollar dominance in global markets. The yuan accounts for only 2% of global foreign exchange reserves compared to the US dollar's 58%, limited by China's tightly controlled financial system. Sharma contends China remains an incomplete superpower without matching the US's financial influence.
