Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 27
Book Description
The Sec. of the Treasury is required to provide semiannual reports on the international economic and exchange rate policies of the major trading partners of the U.S. They must consider "whether countries manipulate the rate of exchange between their currency and the U.S. dollar for purposes of preventing effective balance of payments adjustment or gaining unfair competitive advantage in international trade." This Report covers developments in the second half of 2010, and data as available through the first four months of 2011. Treasury has concluded that no major trading partner of the U.S. met the necessary standards during the period covered in this Report. Contents: Introduction; U.S. Macroecononmic Trends; The Global Economy; U.S. International Accounts; The Dollar in Foreign Exchange Markets; Analyses of Individual Economies. With respect to China, the report concludes that China was not manipulating its currency to gain an unfair trade advantage, but it still needs to allow the yuan to rise much faster in value. Figures and tables. This is a print on demand report.

Exchange Rate Misalignment in Developing Countries
Author: Sebastian EdwardsPublisher: Johns Hopkins University Press
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 110
Book Description
This article analyzes the theory of equilibrium real exchange rates and defines misalignment as a deviation of the real exchange rate (RER) from its equilibrium level. The role of macroeconomic policies is then analyzed under three alternative nominal exchange rate regimes: predetermined nominal exchange rates; floating nominal rates; and dual or black market nominal exchange rates. This discussion points out how inconsistent macroeconomic policies often lead to real exchange rate misalignment. Corrective measures, including nominal devaluation and several alternative approaches, are then evaluated.

The Great Inflation
Author: Michael D. BordoPublisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 0226066959
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 545
Book Description
Controlling inflation is among the most important objectives of economic policy. By maintaining price stability, policy makers are able to reduce uncertainty, improve price-monitoring mechanisms, and facilitate more efficient planning and allocation of resources, thereby raising productivity. This volume focuses on understanding the causes of the Great Inflation of the 1970s and ’80s, which saw rising inflation in many nations, and which propelled interest rates across the developing world into the double digits. In the decades since, the immediate cause of the period’s rise in inflation has been the subject of considerable debate. Among the areas of contention are the role of monetary policy in driving inflation and the implications this had both for policy design and for evaluating the performance of those who set the policy. Here, contributors map monetary policy from the 1960s to the present, shedding light on the ways in which the lessons of the Great Inflation were absorbed and applied to today’s global and increasingly complex economic environment.
