exchange rate management

Exchange rate management involves a country's efforts to influence the value of its currency relative to others. Governments and central banks may intervene by buying or selling their currency, adjusting interest rates, or implementing policies to stabilize or steer exchange rates. This helps control inflation, promote economic stability, encourage exports, and manage international trade. Effective management balances market forces with intervention to ensure the currency remains at a level that supports economic goals without causing instability.
