43 – Eswar Prasad on Chinese Monetary Policy – Past and Present

Eswar Prasad is the Tolani Senior Professor of Trade Policy and Professor of Economics at Cornell University and a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution. He joins the show to discuss his new book, *Gaining Currency: The Rise of the Renminbi,* which examines the rise of China's currency, the renminbi (RMB), and its role in global finance. Prasad argues that the RMB is on the road to becoming a reserve currency, but it will not challenge the US dollar's dominance as a safe haven currency. David and Eswar also discuss China's interesting history as the first country with paper money and a fiat currency.
