此轮金融危机中,汇率再次成为全世界的焦点。欧洲重要经济体的货币——英镑近期不尽人意,其兑美元汇率一泻千里,贬值30%左右。近期发布的数据描绘出英国经济前景依然黯淡、英镑反复震荡走弱,是否暗示着英镑即将退出历史上强者的舞台?答案也许就在英镑的“前世今生”里…… This round of financial crisis, the exchange rate once again become the focus of the world. The currency of major European economies - the pound recently unsatisfactory, its exchange rate against the United States plummeted by about 30% devaluation. The recent release of the data portrays that the outlook for the UK economy is still bleak and the weakening of the British Pound’s repeated shocks imply that the pound is about to withdraw from the stage of the historically strong. Perhaps the answer lies in the Pounds’ Past and Present.
