The Eurodollar Market and the Years of Crisis

First published in 1983, The Eurodollar Market and the Years of Crisis embraces the wider concepts of the market’s role in international monetary developments and examines the Eurodollar market within the context of the international monetary crisis of 1968- 1974. The book deals primarily with the period leading up to these crises from 1958, during which time the market exerted its greatest impact on the international monetary system. The technical details of the market’s structure and functioning are clearly defined, and the second half of the book is devoted to a detailed and systematic chronological investigation of the market’s role from its inception in 1958 up to the present times. This is an important historical reference work for students of economics.
