The financial world has changed in a week

53
Last week there were two major events in the field of international finance. At first glance, they are completely unrelated. But this is only the first. The financial world has changed in a week. The Bretton Woods world, founded by the Anglo-Saxons on the domination of the dollar, took another very significant step towards the end of its existence.

The financial world has changed in a week


Before we talk about these two events, we need to mention another one, which is a definite background for what is happening. Or the foundation - here as someone more like.

For several months in a row, in the information space, there was a question about a possible disconnection of Russia from the western payment banking system SWIFT. Through it today passes the vast majority of financial transactions in the world. The main SWIFT center is located in Brussels, but is under US control.

The result of US pressure on Russia is the accelerated launch of a similar payment system by China by the end of 2015.

Source: http://inosmi.info/kitay-zavershaet-sozdanie-alternativy-swift-prichyom-os-dedollarizatsii-mozhet-zarabotat-uzhe-v-sent.html

“According to Reuters, the China International Payment System (CIPS), which serves to handle cross-border transactions in RMB, is ready and can be launched in September or October of this year. This will eliminate one of the biggest obstacles to the internationalization of the yuan. This should significantly increase the international use of Chinese currency by reducing transaction costs and payment processing time. ”

The yuan is becoming an even more visible alternative to the dollar, but the main result of the creation of CIPS is the creation of the foundation of an alternative financial system on a global scale. Attempts to strike out Russia from the financial world will be impossible - but it’s not only and not so much about Russia. This is about the loss of Washington's monopoly on the global financial system.

A circulatory payment and transaction system will be built by China by the end of 2015.

Now it’s up to the issuing center, which will create money, the “blood of the economy”, so that it flows through the new payment system.

And this emission center has already been created.

This Chinese alternative to the World Bank is called the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB).

“Contrary to the recommendations of the United States, Western European countries join the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank.

On the eve of France, Germany and Italy agreed to join the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (ABII), writes the Financial Times, citing its sources in diplomatic circles. According to the American media, this greatly changes the balance of power in the growing confrontation between the United States and China over who will establish economic and trade rules in Asia. ” http://rusplt.ru/world/velikobritaniya-pozvala-vseh-v-aziatskiy-bank-16011.html

AIIB was established in November 2014 by the initiative of China “to finance infrastructure projects in the Asia-Pacific region”. Four months have passed and the United Kingdom and other Western countries are joining this Chinese project.

This means - it is impossible to ignore. Therefore it is better to cooperate. Britain is not just the closest ally of the United States. This brain - States torso. And the brain of the modern financial system today considers it a blessing to enter the project, alternative to its monopoly.

Let's sum up the intermediate result.

China made decisive moves in the financial sector. Russia supports China in this movement. The West, having failed to blow up Russia from the inside or by drawing it into a war in Ukraine, destabilize the Eurasian space, in order to weaken China, is forced to negotiate with Beijing.

Does this mean that the struggle is over? Of course not. The fight is endless. And the West will also try to pit Russia and China many times between themselves. But not yet. We have to negotiate with Beijing.

And now back to two newswith which we began our analysis of the situation.

The first news.

20 March 2015, the presidents of Russia, Kazakhstan and Belarus discussed “how to overcome the crisis phenomena in the economies of the countries of the Customs Union, how to raise mutual trade and when to switch to a single currency.

The proposed altyn as a way of calculation is still only at the discussion stage, since there is no decision on where to print and how to regulate its volumes ”. http://www.1tv.ru/news/polit/280224

See the original material at http://www.1tv.ru/news/polit/280224

Meanwhile, a few months ago, they also called the terms quite different - 2025 year. http://expert.ru/2014/09/10/evrazijskij-soyuz-sozdaet-obschuyu-finansovuyu-sistemu/

And now this “acceleration” for ten years. Why? And because the financial world is changing very quickly. And the fact that the Eurasian Union planned in a very distant future can now (and should) be done immediately. After all, the Chinese partners have created an emission center and are about to launch a payment system. And where it is more convenient to approach the work under the new rules with ONE currency, rather than with three or more.

It is curious that on the eve of a trip to Astana and statements on a single financial system and a single currency of the Eurasian Union, the Russian president met in Moscow with a high-ranking Chinese comrade: “Vladimir Putin received in the Kremlin the head of the office of the Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party, Li Zhanshu.” http://www.kremlin.ru/news/47887

The second news.

The system for determining the price of gold in the world is changing.

“Starting from 1919 to the present, the so-called London Gold Fix system operated on the precious metal market - a pricing system that set a certain average price twice a day and the process was administered by London Gold Market Fixing Ltd. Experts believe that this will not be just some kind of trivial technical change, it will be a real turning point in stories gold And this is why: London Gold Fix, which will cease to exist on Thursday, allowed only four participants to set the price of gold, which, of course, made it possible to carry out the necessary manipulations. This system will be replaced by a specially designed auction, it will be as transparent as possible, and as many participants as possible will be allowed to it. ” http://www.vestifinance.ru/articles/54704

It's funny, really. The system for determining FOUR people twice the price of gold (about which I wrote in detail in the book “Cherche la oil”) worked for almost a hundred years. And no “violations” in it, no one saw. Did not criticize. And then “suddenly” - they saw ...

“Many note that the decision to form a new pricing method was made in view of criticism from many economists and market participants, as well as investigating the facts of fraud in various markets, which regulators are conducting.

According to many experts, in its current form, the pricing method is outdated and "vulnerable to manipulation." http://vkurse.ua/business/sobirayutsya-izmenit-cenoobrazovanie-na-zoloto.html?top-rotate

How does the system change? Monopoly, of course, the Anglo-Saxons, are not going to destroy. There will be no transparent auction, as there was not one hundred years before. The British simply include Chinese banks in the gold pricing system. Why? And this is a fee, a reciprocal “request” for the inclusion of the UK in the very Chinese Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank and in the future to the Chinese payment system.

“As we have said, experts expect that in the new conditions, China’s role in pricing will be much higher and become more transparent. This innovation opens up the playing field for gold trading and adds a completely new range of opportunities and participants, especially for the Chinese, "said Market Watch Kevin Kerr, President of Kerr Trading International.

Now everyone is talking about the huge demand for gold from China, but no one knows the real numbers, because the authorities of the Middle Kingdom carefully hide them. So, Mr. Kerr is sure that in the new conditions the veil of secrecy will be slightly opened.

The London Association of Precious Metals Market Participants (LBMA) promised not to disclose the names of bidders until the launch of the new system, but if Chinese banks are directly involved in the fixing process, they will be able to conduct arbitrage transactions between Shanghai and gold, making it essentially round the clock international market. This opinion was expressed by Julian Phillips, the founder of GoldForecaster.com. ” http://www.vestifinance.ru/articles/54704

Especially a lot of all these news is not told. Meanwhile, these are all real signs of a serious weakening of the dollar monopoly, and in general, the Anglo-Saxon monopoly on the global financial system.

      Until they rule, but they are clearly stepping on the heels of the Anglo-Saxons. But!
      In any case, without Russia it will not "run out". The last century has shown that no one has succeeded in rebuilding the World without taking into account Russia's interests. The Chinese understand this better than the Anglo-Saxons.

        March 27, People's Daily online - The project to create the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) is attractive. But according to Russian experts, either the Russian leadership did not give it due attention, or it expects a more suitable format for cooperation. Complicated the solution to this issue and the precarious economic situation in Russia.
        “Our priorities are the SCO and BRICS. Therefore, perhaps the Russian government did not attach due importance to the AIIB. But I suppose that the situation will change in the near future, ”said Sergey Lukonin, head of the Chinese economy and politics sector of the Center for Asia-Pacific Studies at the Institute for World Economy and International Relations (IMEMO) of the Russian Academy of Sciences, in an interview with People's Daily on-line.

      Recently we sat with relatives at an event - the conversation turned about our "altyn", etc.

      Yes, everyone agreed that it is necessary to get away from "dollar slavery" and this is the essence of the altyn, in contrast to the current ruble or tenge

      But then an interesting thought sounded - about - and why did they suddenly rush so? After all, they were going to study and introduce for a long time later
      So the thought sounded - that this is not because of the dollar and amers - but because of the "friend and ally" because of China - it is growing so fast that from the "dollar" slavery we can all, together with the Russians, get into the "yuan" - therefore it is better faster speed up with altyn and consolidate it in all countries that will join us

      I don’t know for sure - are these fears real?

      What is a "ruble"? There was information on VO that it was a franchise, the private property of a "pack of comrades". Therefore, it is not surprising that he is in a fever when his owners need it. How correct this information is, I do not know. But I did not see a refutation in the comments. Hence the theme of "altyn", the monetary unit of the state, independent of the Federal Reserve System and a pack of comrades, whose comrades in the ravine are eating up their horses.

      What have economists got to do with it? One of the shuttle traders told me for a long time. I went to China for clothes, there Chinese people sit on all the doorways and sew all kinds of junk. Hands, primitive sewing machines. Anything and anyhow. And they make money. Therefore, China's GDP cannot be compared with ours. And how do Chinese economists influence this? None. We can't even sweep the yard ourselves, we hire "Tajiks". This is how the GDP diverges. Are the economists to blame? No, laziness is to blame. The desire to live beautifully and not to get your hands dirty. Economists have nothing to do with it. The mentality is not the same.

      I also thought about it. All three countries (England, Germany and France) are vassals of the United States. Although, there may be a banal 'diversification' - if the owner is bent, then you can survive yourself. And if he survives, then they will gladly help him in destroying competitors.
      From England it is not entirely unambiguous. The Rothschilds are 'the clan changed', and for them participation in the AIIB is another opportunity to stake out a place of bread in the new world. If they were allowed in, then there could be an agreement against the Rockefellers (FRS).

    The UK and the rest of the EU are not part of the AII in order to invest a lot and generously, but to put wheels in the wheels.
    There, the distribution of 75% is Asian countries, 25% is the EU. This is already enough to make the new bank inoperative, and if you add American allies from among Asian countries, such as Japan and Thailand, then it seems that it will be impossible to make any decisions objectionable to the United States and Great Britain.
    But they (the opponents of China and Russia) will make them smarter, they will invest a little in their allies and even not very allies, and even in China and India, that is, they will portray vigorous activity exactly as long as China "moves" within the Western plan, but as soon as something goes wrong they will block everything.
    By the way, nothing has been heard about Russia's participation in this bank. He's gone. And this gives the Anglo-Saxons gentlemen a serious reason immediately, after the "distribution of purchased tickets" and from the moment the AII started working, to torpedo the BRICS bank project. After all, this is very logical and is expressed in one simple phrase: What the hell is a button accordion to a goat?
    And it will look like it is not the United States doing it, but sovereign and independent countries. For the United States does not participate in AI, "as it were."

    So I would take it more as bad news than as another step towards the collapse of the Bretton Woods ...
    Russia just traveled on a lame goat ... which does not need a button accordion)))

And here it’s impossible to say by what rules it will be better to play for Russia. Because China does everything for the power of China.

      No "grievances" - the name was proposed by our Nursultan Abishevich - and the logic was that the word was not alien to either Kazakhs or Russians. not for many peoples of Russia itself (Tatars, Bashkirs, and other Turkic-speaking)

      In fact, it is clear that the economy of the Russian Federation is larger than Belarus and Kazakhstan, and therefore the larger economy will probably have more "votes" in the conduct of the emission policy and in making a decision - that is, it is not so important as the name is - it is important that it is necessary to leave the tenge as well and from the ruble as "dollar-dependent" currencies (read the same Starikov) and a single Eurasian currency should be printed not when "dollars for this amount were bought" - but according to the laws of the market and economics - in order to correspond to the turnover within the union

        The whole trouble is that the oligarchy is profitable to peg to Western currencies, the ruble and tenge for so much, since.
        Another problem is that the economies of Russia and Kazakhstan at the present time (and no way out of this situation is yet to be expected) are import-dependent, there is no domestic market as such (they entered the WTO in order to finish off the remnants of internal markets).
        For Kazakhstan and Belarus, in addition, there is a great risk of becoming completely dependent on Russia, as the largest economy of the union, tea is not socialism with its division of labor, but feudal oligarchic capitalism with its indefatigable appetites. An example of the EU is not far - Germany sucked out everything that it could from smaller economies.

        The "market" as such has not existed in nature for a couple of centuries, but which "laws of economics" are? And are they really there, if the economy today consists mainly of absurdities?
        And so it turns out pessimistic if we discard the politically correct husk.

        No offense, but I am not Kazakh and do not belong to the Tatars, Bashkirs, and the rest of the Turkic-speaking. The largest of these groups is Slavic (119,7 million people — 82,5% of the total population of Russia). - I personally am against that name - I agree in steel (single Eurasian currency)

    I wonder who came up with the name of the new Eurasian currency Altyn? Is it to offend the Russians somehow?

    Now, if they called the tugrik, military men are tsiriks, and yes, the division in Tumen! And so nothing)))

    The main thing is to get rid of the status of a raw materials appendage, we need to change political, economic, and production guidelines. We need a powerful breakthrough, new industrialization. The Magnitogorsk Iron and Steel Works was built in 2 years, the Stalingrad Tractor in 4 years. With the right approach, everything can be done if there is a desire and will Government.
