Expert investor Jim Rogers, co-founder of the Quantum Fund alongside George Soros, has reignited the conversation about the end of the U.S. dollar’s dominance. In an interview with Nomad Capitalist, Rogers draws attention to the Chinese yuan as a plausible contender, subject to China’s willingness to ease its currency controls.

The U.S.’s status as the largest debtor nation in world history further complicates the situation.

For the yuan to step up, China must first “completely open its currency,” allowing the free buying and selling of the renminbi just like the euro or the U.S. dollar. Rogers emphasizes that China has been gradually lifting these restrictions for the past 20 years but feels the pace has been insufficient. BRICS: A non-starter in Rogers’ view Rogers takes a skeptical stance on the global economic alliance known as BRICS, which comprises Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa.
