Produktbeschreibung
As the international currency par excellence for the past seventy years, the dollar is under the control of a single country, which seems worrying to many observers. Even more serious, we are told, is that this country, the United States, is the world's largest debtor. But the dollar is not about to lose its global influence, for one simple reason: there is no substitute currency. Neither the euro, nor the Chinese yuan or the Indian rupee can replace the dollar as an international currency.

In addition, the Federal Reserve would have to prove itself powerless to stop a sharp and continuing rise in US prices.
