Saudi Arabia's mBridge exit highlights de-dollarisation limits

Original: Opinion | Saudi Arabia’s mBridge exit shows the limits of financial de-dollarisation

Saudi Arabia has reportedly stepped back from Project mBridge, the central bank digital currency platform led by the Bank for International Settlements that aims to enable cross-border payments outside the dollar system. A South China Morning Post opinion column argues the move shows that de-dollarisation efforts face practical limits, as the dollar's dominance in trade and finance remains difficult to displace.

Why now: Saudi Arabia's withdrawal from a major alternative payments project is being read as a setback for efforts to reduce global reliance on the dollar.
