Excerpt:
“While authorities’ efforts to curb shadow bank lending (particularly to smaller companies) have prompted a cutback in non-financial corporate debt, net borrowing in other sectors has brought China’s total debt to over $40 trillion - some 15% of all global debt,” the report said.

This was from 2019 . China’s becoming the world currency would be more political than economical given their debt, but since they are a communist government it would help usher the world closer to a one world UN type government IMO.
China is not agitating for the Yuan to be the world's reserve currency; rather a combination of currencies including the Yuan - and excluding the dollar. A year or so ago I think the Ruble was part of the conglomerate; not sure now.
