SUMMARY:44th Annual Monetary and Trade Conference
DESCRIPTION: \n\nThe dollar remains the anchor of the global financial syst
 em\, but its\ndominance is under pressure. From within\, fiscal imbalances
  and tariff\nuncertainty have produced the dollar’s steepest decline in 
 years.\nFrom without\, China is advancing RMB internationalization through
 \ncurrency swaps\, the digital yuan\, and the BRICS Bridge platform. The\n
 monetary contest now mirrors the trade war\, the US and China are\nsimulta
 neously building rival payment rails\, reserve frameworks\, and\nfinancial
  market access regimes. The deeper risk is not replacement\nbut fragmentat
 ion\, leaving emerging markets and sovereign debt holders\nstranded betwee
 n two rival architectures. This conference will\nconfront the defining que
 stion of our monetary moment: whether\nUS–China rivalry will reshape or 
 shatter the dollar-driven order\,\nand what a bifurcated system means for 
 sovereign borrowers\, central\nbanks\, and the future of international fin
 ance.\n
