Officials from Japan, the United States and Europe plan to hold talks with their Chinese counterparts on foreign exchange reforms ahead of a meeting of Group of Seven ministers next week, a newspaper said on Saturday.
The informal talks are aimed at urging China to carry out foreign exchange reforms such as a revaluation of the Chinese yuan, the Mainichi Shimbun said, quoting an international monetary source.
The discussions may be held at the vice-minister level next Thursday, a day before the start of a meeting of Group of Seven finance ministers and central bank governors in Washington, the newspaper said.
