Abstract
The Special Drawing Rights (SDR) system was designed in the 1960s as a mechanism to redistribute foreign exchange reserves within the Bretton Woods System. The new SDR allocation of August 2021 is an attempt to harness it to provide more elasticity in the international monetary system and to help Emerging Market Economies (EMEs) and Least Developed Countries (LDCs) address post-pandemic debt problems.
