"a country with a deficit in its overall international payments runs the risk of increasing inflation if it defends its fixed exchange rate by (unsterilized) official intervention in the foreign exchange market" Do you agree or disagree? Why?
Homework Answers
Ans
No I don't agree. The reason is trade deficit tends to depreciate home currency. To keep exchange rate fixed the central bank or Govt will sell foreign currency and purchase domestic currency. This will decrease money supply. As a result prices will fall and not rise.
