Correct Answer: Currency pegging


Solution : The correct answer is d) Currency pegging

Currency pegging refers to a situation where a country's central bank or monetary authority fixes the value of its currency to another currency, often a major currency like the US dollar or the euro, at a specified exchange rate. The purpose of currency pegging is to maintain stability in the exchange rate and provide a predictable environment for international trade and investment. The central bank intervenes in the foreign exchange market as needed to ensure that the currency remains within the specified exchange rate range.
