Under the arrangement, moreover, a country with efficient production and a favored competitive position (including as enhanced by new capital goods) is rewarded with rising income and reduced unemployment. No grand scheme of state or international planning and direct control is required. Exchange rates are for the most part fixed under the classical gold-flows mechanisms (say, $/£ const. within fixed limits), as stated, and adjustments to trade imbalances

Instead of the "invisible hand" of the market creating an money supply/interest rate equilibrium, the Chinese government is doing so by requiring banks to hold more deposits on their balance sheets. China's announcement will likely affect interest rates quite dramatically in that banks will have more cash on hand to help pad their balance sheets while the money supply stays relatively low. This helps to keep the potential for inflation

central banks in developing countries can influence their position on the exchange market through exchange rate interventions.

The Canadian Bankers Association Chief Executive Officer Nancy Hughes Anthony stated on June 8, 2010 that the G-20 policy proposals are "too onerous" and "could potentially choke the banking industry (Deslongchamps & Quinn, 2010). What is very interesting about all of this rancor is that it appears that Canada's interests are getting sacrificed to benefit Europe. Exactly what is "Canadian" about the bank of Canada or "Federal" about the American

Comments on ArticleThe leading indicator concept discussed by Wu et al. (2006) seems like a good way to track trends in demand. However, for forecasting revenue and for forecasting planning capacity, different data are required. It can be useful in inventory forecasting, but for predicting demand growth, there is some degree of uncertainty particularly where technology substitution comes into play. I would add that, since the article focuses on the
