SDR

People might be prepared to hold it in the hope of it being officially classed as an SDR currency.

The SDR , however, is more like an exchange -traded fund (ETF) than a currency, and is not a viable alternative to the dollar .

Mr. Guo said the IMF should 'immediately' include the yuan as a component of its Special Drawing Rights basket of currencies.

It would take years for the SDR to be widely accepted as a means of exchange and a store of value.

It would take years to develop SDR money markets that are liquid enough to be a reserve asset .

Special drawing rights, or SDRs, are a form of composite currency issued by the IMF to its members.

Yet, the role of the SDR has not been put into full play due to limitations on its allocation and the scope of its uses.

The money would come from the International Monetary Fund, from financial instruments known as special drawing rights.

SPECIAL Drawing Rights, or SDRs, are often referred to as the IMF's currency.

But moving the SDR back to the prominent place it was designed to occupy would be a formidable political and logistical task.

His comments were backed by US Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner who said he supported a change to SDR composition.

One of the things that the SDR must decide is whether Britain wants to keep that capability or not.

Such a solution is readily available in the form of special drawing rights.

If a country did not need to do so, it would not mobilise the SDR-based credit.

Beijing has said it will buy up to $50 billion worth of SDR-denominated bonds to be issued by the IMF.

The solution that financial policymakers hit upon was to have the IMF create a new international reserve currency: the SDR.

Similarly, the SDR can merely provide a convenient way of holding a basket of currencies, and will not be an alternative reserve currency.

SDR is . . . only a notional currency that exists primarily between central banks.

Now, in the same way, the global role of SDRs should be increased, both through new issues and a bigger role for the rights in IMF lending.

Within days, Russia called for the yuan to be included in the basket of currencies that the IMF uses to determine the value of SDRs.

The advantage of a fresh SDR issuance is that it immediately augments countries' foreign reserves without needing to be lent.

Why not, however, gradually give the SDR more of the characteristics of a genuine money and allocate new issues to emerging countries?

SDRs are based on a basket of the major tradable currencies and can be used for transactions between governments.

Some, including Chinese officials, talk of a shift towards SDRs (special drawing rights) as a reserve asset.

Eventually SDRs could become the main, or even the only, mechanism for IMF financing.

But for the SDR to be usable, the currencies in the basket have to be widely traded and freely convertible.

In fact, as a buyer, I no longer even ask the seller for an SDR report unless specifically required by state law.

Issuance of SDRs is a way of achieving this goal, without changing the fundamental character of the global system.

Since the yuan's uses are limited, an SDR that includes the yuan would be hobbled.

Such a currency already exists in embryonic form in the IMF Special Drawing Rights.

Instead of converting unwanted dollars through the market, official holders would deposit them in a separate IMF account for SDR.

Even its most enthusiastic backers realize that the SDR will have to enter the ring slowly, gradually displacing the dollar.

the attractiveness of Asian countries can be increased, generating pilot experiences for extended SDR application by IMF.

And yet the SDR is, in fact, a poor contender.

The SDR, which IMF economists had expected to become a central feature of the world's monetary system, instead became a bit player.

Mr Zhou proposed that the world should replace the dollar with a global reserve currency, the SDR (Special Drawing Rights).

Nobody expects the yuan to be in the SDR basket by the end of 2011; but getting the idea discussed is progress of a sort.

However, it serves as the light in the tunnel for the reform of the international monetary system.

Zhou Xiaochuan suggested SDRs should be promoted as an alternative reserve currency.

The seller's disclosure report (SDR) is last on my list of methods of discerning the secrets of a property.

Backers of an SDR allocation are likely to face some tired, out-of-date arguments.

These requirements, in turn, complicate the greatest challenge in the current SDR design: energy conservation.

Mr Zhou also proposes an SDR-denominated fund, managed by the IMF, into which dollar reserves could be exchanged for SDRs.

The SDR is a synthetic currency unit maintained by the International Monetary Fund that represents a basket of actual currencies.

The scope of using the SDR should be broadened, so as to enable it to fully satisfy the member countries' demand for a reserve currency.

SDR is an international reserve asset created by the IMF to supplement existing reserves.

SDR issuance may be a supplement; it will not be a replacement.

But China feels that an expanded SDR role could be a half-way house that could dilute the US's dominance.

New SDR issues could be introduced in times of declines in private capital flows or large falls of global commodity prices.

But as Zhou's speech suggests, the idea of the SDR assuming a more prominent role persists.

Results show that the main factors affecting the SDR are different in the two watersheds.

Designation means that the IMF has mandated certain member countries to receive SDR's and to exchange them for free usable currencies.

Even if the political hurdles are overcome, the SDR will remain a basket of national currencies, not an independent currency.

In the late 1960s a more limited global currency was created: the SDRs, issued by the IMF when enough member countries agree.

Alternatively, countries with strong external finances can buy SDRs from countries which need hard currency.

Leading powers are not going to accept the SDR as a new global reserve currency, nor the IMF as a global central bank.

Actively promote the use of the SDR in international trade, commodities pricing, investment and corporate book-keeping .

A one-time SDR allocation would dramatically build confidence in co-operative solutions to the global recession.

The Special Drawing Right, or SDR, is a quasi currency used within the IMF by its member countries.

The French have suggested a greater role for the IMF's own synthetic reserve asset, the Special Drawing Right (SDR).

Some economists believe the SDR could one day become a global reserve currency alongside the US dollar.

In his essay, China's Mr. Zhou proposed expanding the role of 'Special Drawing Rights, ' or SDRs.

Based on the latest international development, this paper presents an in-depth discussion of the Software Defined Radio (SDR) technology.

Because the SDR's value depends on several currencies, it shares many of the benefits of a multiple-currency system.

"SDR" means a Special Drawing Right as defined by the International Monetary Fund.

Approval of an SDR allocation requires an 85 per cent majority vote of the IMF membership.

The SDRs limit the current, thereby reducing signal undershoot and overshoot noise.

There is no conditionality attached to the use of the member countries' SDR account.

Germany made significant concessions in agreeing to the new allocation of SDRs.

A swift expansion of the SDR system would show this continued leadership.

At last, the IF digital scheme is implemented on the hardware platform by utilizing SDR thoughts.

Over time, other major internationalised currencies could be added to the SDR basket and forum.

New measures to increase the effectiveness of SDRs themselves are also needed.

The SDR has the features and potential to act as a super-sovereign reserve currency.

Special consideration should be given to giving the SDR a greater role.

The SDR plan is a new twist on a long campaign by Mr Soros to use the instruments to fund development aid.

The value of the SDR is based on a basket of currencies (the dollar, euro, yen and pound) that might expand one day to include the yuan.

SDRs are monetary units used by the IMF for international reserves.

SDR assets make up less than 5 per cent of global foreign exchange reserves.

The RMB is now of certain capacity and potential to join the SDR, but we still have a lot of preparation to do.

The vertical distributions of SDR of 3 positions in central Yellow Sea were inhomogeneous with depth increasing.

The IMF holds SDRs, underpinned by dollar, euro, yen and pound, as its reserve currency.

Zhou Xiaochuan also said SDRs should be based on a basket of currencies, including China's renminbi.

Further improve the valuation and allocation of the SDR.

The dollar fell 1. 3 per cent against the euro as headlines saying "Geithner open to SDR currency" flashed across traders' screens.

Expanding the constituents from four to 10 would roughly halve the share of the present four SDR currencies.

Cognitive radio is arriving on the heels of SDR technology and building on it.

As to the SDR, it is not a real currency either.

True, but the SDR is not a viable alternative.

But the SDR is unlikely to become a reserve currency any time soon.

The best attempt I have seen to explain their status is in Goldman Sachs' Global Economic Paper No. 196.

If the Chinese want the yuan included in the SDR, they will probably have to liberalise their capital account first.

The last proposed SDR allocation, of $21. 4 billion, was approved by the IMF's board in 1997.

China and other emerging economies would benefit politically from redrawing the SDR when the weights are recalculated in 2010.

By using this method, a new hardware modulation platform in SDR is designed.

The SDR basket now comprises the dollar, the euro, the pound and the yen.

But the SDR is closer to an accounting unit than a currency.

Although that is useful shorthand, the SDR is not, in fact, a currency, but rather the IMF's unit of account.

A large, one-time allocation of SDR would do most to address these issues.

A large SDR allocation can help meet this demand for reserves.

The coming of Software Defined Radio (SDR) redefines the way to implement receivers.

An SDR's value is based on a basket of the dollar, euro, pound and yen.

But the SDR is merely a basket of major currencies.

If and when the world economy recovered or boomed, SDR issues could then cease, or even be reabsorbed.

New radio techniques such as cognitive radio and SDR will be applied to new services in this UHF band.

A second argument against SDR allocations is that they are inflationary.

Nor is it clear that the SDR is really needed as an alternative to the dollar.

The SDR is not a currency and cannot replace the currencies of which it is made.

SDRs are a kind of synthetic currency created by the IMF in the 1960s.

The first SDRs -- more than 9 billion of them -- were issued beginning in January 1970.

The main point is that they only come into existence if a member country borrows from the Fund.

Total SDRs in existence are now worth $300bn or 3 to 4 per cent of world reserves.

This is because the SDR is simply a potential claim on the national currencies of IMF members.

Does the SDR have a role to play in rebalancing the world economy?

I mean, how do you have a currency in the SDR that's not market-determined but determined by a government? '
