Excerpt GEAB N°71 - UP or Down? Multinationals in the infrastructure field
When China invests in infrastructure throughout the world, it’s partly to get rid of its dollars. But then they pass into the hands of large companies in the infrastructure field, which in turn accumulate dollar reserves. If their treasury is run in dollars, the fall which we anticipate above will cause them to lose a great deal of money. Domestic SMEs are a priori much less sensitive to this risk and accordingly we favour them in terms of investment strategy. We reiterate our recommendation for European businesses trading abroad to invoice their services in Euros in order to free themselves from exchange rate risk. It’s simpler and especially safer than to rely on financial products which make it possible to cover this risk: who will pay out on these options or other derivatives in the event of a world financial shock?

In 2013, the world realizes that the U.S. debt that weighs so heavily on the global economy, has no solution: its astronomical size and the extreme weakness of economic fundamentals in the United States leave nothing more than to predict the collapse of the international currency as the inevitable consequence of and solution to the U.S. debt crisis. Thus the global crisis is about to experience a new dramatic development. The question is: Is the world prepared to bear such a shock?
