The data on the daily amount of operations is not known, but the yuan is discounted by the currency swap signed by the central banks of both countries.
The swap reaches the equivalent of 20,000 million dollars (one dollar today equals 6.88 yuan) and the tranche authorized by China to apply it to the payment of imports from Argentina is 5,000 million dollars. Using that part of the swap, the Central Bank of China charges it as a debt receivable. And it applies a Shibor interest rate (today at 2.6% per annum) plus a spread that would be around 6.5 points.
