Your opinion please windreader. Following is an excerpt from an article posted earlier today.
<<<George Soros said the success of the G20 meeting was "hovering on a knife edge between success and failure" and would depend on a pledge to increase the global money supply to help poor countries.
In a speech at the London School of Economics, the billionaire investor said the G20 should create about $250bn of the International Monetary Fund's Special Drawing Rates – international reserve assets which can be exchanged for major currencies – to make an impact. IMF member countries are allocated SDRs in proportion to their IMF quotas.>>>
Regarding what was said in blue above, I was struck with a question that may be simple enough, but I wanted to ask you. Is the SDR AMOUNT (250bln) exchangeable for MORE than 250bln? These sdr amounts don't impress me much when it comes to Iraq having enough to finance a big RV. Thanks for the answer in advance! OWL
