Petrocurrency is a neologism used with three distinct meanings, though often confused: #Trading surpluses of oil producing nations, originally called petrodollars #Currencies of oil producing nations which tend to rise in value against other currencies when the price of oil rises (and fall when it falls). #Currencies used as a unit of account to price oil in the international market. ==Oil producers' trading surpluses== With the large rise in oil prices in the 1970s, there was concern that the world economy might contract if the oil producers extracted money and failed to recycle it back to oil consumers. With a similar rise in prices at the start of the 21st century, more of these oil surpluses have been reinvested through sovereign wealth funds. Two early examples were the Kuwait Investment Authority and the Petroleum Fund of Norway. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Petrocurrency」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
