BEIJING -- China is expected to soon issue a policy facilitating settlement in yuan for trade between Hong Kong and the mainland, the country's central bank governor Zhou Xiaochuan said here Friday.

"It won't be long before the policy can be made public," Zhou told a press conference here on the sideline of the parliament's annual session.
