Ltd., and the remitter was the company's business partner in Hong Kong, said the Beijing-based BOC in a statement on its Web site Monday. The bank did not reveal the amount of the settlement in the statement. Li Lihui, president of the BOC, said Monday at the ceremony of the first cross-border yuan trade settlement held in Shanghai that the deal could facilitate trade between China and neighboring countries and regions and help enterprises avoid exchange rate risks.
