Description: "This book covers the history of the Bank for International Settlements (BIS), the first-born among the international economic institutions, from its founding in Basel in 1930 to the end of the Bretton Woods system in 1973. While the focus is on cooperation among the main central banks for the stability and efficiency of the international monetary system, this book also offers an institutional history of the BIS."--BOOK JACKET.
