Following the previous recommendation on Micro and Macro IA topics, I would like to introduce new topics that can well fit into Global Economy IA.
Topics commonly used in Global IA include Tariff or export subsidy which are main topics within the unit, Global Economy.
However, since last year, topics related to Foreign Exchange Market Intervention have become increasingly ‘hot’. As the global economy and related financial markets have been so turbulent recently, there are many dramas going on in the exchange rate markets all over the world.
Check out some new articles including exchange rate market intervention!
Not just the governments mentioned in the recommended articles, there are many other governments around the world which are implementing similar policies for various economic reasons and with various policies, so if you do a little Googling, it will let you find the latest and optimal Global IA articles!
