China's central bank announced on Sunday that it had signed a framework agreement on a currency swap scheme with Georgian central bank.

Zhou Xiaochuan, head of the People's Bank of China (PBOC), inked the document with Giorgi Kadagidze, governor of the National Bank of Georgia, on the sidelines of the 34th Meeting of the Central Bank Governors' Club of the Central Asia, Black Sea Region and Balkan Countries.
