Gold Standard: Unraveling the Glittering Tapestry of Global Finance
About this ebook
An example of a monetary system that adheres to the gold standard is one in which the standard economic unit of account is determined by a predetermined amount of gold. From the 1870s until the early 1920s, and from the late 1920s until 1932, as well as from 1944 until 1971, when the United States unilaterally terminated convertibility of the United States dollar to gold, effectively ending the Bretton Woods system, the gold standard served as the foundation for the international monetary system. Notwithstanding this, a few of states possess significant gold reserves.
