Throughout, the United States is used as a case study to see how banking and central bank monetary policies affect international trade and investment.The study examines the banking history of the United States and how the corporate consolidation process was institutionalized with the creation of the U.S. Federal Reserve System. Ashdown concludes that current policies fail to support the national interest by creating policy that allows or ignores sustained trade deficits over consecutive years. He demonstrates how institutions can affect, or even constrain, the policies of nation-states, which is then theoretically generalized in demonstrating how other global actors are shaping the post-bipolar international power structure. Of particular interest to scholars, students, and policy makers involved with economic policy, finance, and international business.Balance of paymentsUnited StatesMonetary policyUnited StatesBanks and bankingUnited StatesInternational financeUnited StatesCommerceBalance of paymentsMonetary policyBanks and bankingInternational finance.337Ashdown Neil H.1970-1795556DLCDLCDLCBOOK9910964967603321The impact of banking policy on trade and global stability4336928UNINA
