Harvard's Jeff Frankel has an excellent
piece on his blog about current trends in international monetary economics. His list is:
- The G20's replacing the G7
- Countries are moving away from either fixed or floating exchange rates toward more intermediate regimes
- Countries (i.e. China) are getting more credit for accumulating reserves, even if they have to use "unfair manipulation" to do it
- Export price targeting will replace inflation targeting for central banks
- The dollar being the world's reserve currency is being replaced by a multiple currency system
Definitely read the whole piece.
