Chile s government led the way in 1967 by creating the Unidad de Fomento (UF), and other Latin American countries have followed suit. Despite the unit s technical sounding name, people in Chile seem to have learned to think in terms of the UF instead of the peso for important contracts.

As the reader may have guessed, these are real countries Mexico and Vietnam. Mexico shares a 2,000 mile long border with the United States, which provides not only privileged market access in goods and labor, but also a claim to the resources of the US Treasury (as became apparent during the 1995 peso crisis).
