Abstract
This presentation reviews recent research on the anatomy and dynamics of the international monetary system. It discusses the role of the US in international finance and contrasts it with the emerging role of the People’s Bank of China. Using high-frequency data on foreign investor holdings, it will analyse the recent turmoil in international markets and the emergence of crypto currencies.
