Abstract

[fre] La volatilité des taux de change des devises depuis la fin des années 1970 et jusque dans les années 1980 a causé aux pays producteurs de pétrole de grands problèmes financiers.. Le but de cet article est de présenter comment un « cocktail monétaire » comme les Droits des Tirages Spéciaux (DTS) aurait pu minimiser, ou éviter, le risque de change associé au paiement en dollar. En dépit d'un avantage apparent, il est montré que le panier monétaire ne pouvait pas absorber les deux chocs pétroliers de 1973 et de 1979. [eng] The volatility of the foreign exchange of the late 1970's and, so far, the 1980's has caused oil petroleum producers some great financial problems. The aim of this article is to present how « currency cocktail », like Special Drawing Right (SDR), could minimize, or hedge, foreign exchange risks associated with the american dollar. In spite of an apparent advantage, it is shown that the cocktail currency unit could not absorb the two oil price shocks of 1973 and 1979..
