International Monetary Power and China’s Response

Abstract

International monetary power has become a new area of interest since the outbreak of the global financial crisis in 2008. The USA, the EU and China will pursue global monetary power in the future, and the USD, the EURO and the RMB will become the most important world reserve currencies. The pattern of international monetary power will shift from a unilateral-hegemony structure to a triangle-balance structure. This shift has a very strong influence on changes in the current international political system. As the largest emerging economy, China will speed up the globalization of the RMB to meet the challenges of the international monetary system.
