BEIJING, Nov 17 (Reuters) - The imperative of greater global currency stability means the world can no longer rely, as it has done since the end of the gold standard, on a currency issued by a single country, the head of the IMF said on Tuesday.
Dominique Strauss-Kahn, the managing director of the International Monetary Fund, restated his view that a new global currency might evolve out of the Special Drawing Right, the Fund's in-house unit of account.
"In a globalised world there is no domestic solution," Strauss-Kahn told a forum. (Reporting by Alan Wheatley; Editing by Ken Wills)
