Product Description
Offering a contribution to our understanding of foreign exchange markets, Laurence Krause sets out to demonstrate how speculation in foreign exchange has played a large role in creating sizeable currency bubbles, which in turn have increased pressure on currency during periods of crisis. The phenomenon has often required intervention by governments and central banks to restore order. Professor Krause assesses the economic and political costs of currency bubbles and surveys the options for future international economic policy to control or avoid them.
