A clause in international transactions that stipulates that when a contract is denominated in a currency other than the US dollar, the US dollar value shall be used as the basis for settlement. It is also called a dollar clause. This clause is intended to prevent the parties to a transaction from suffering unforeseen losses due to the change in the value of the claim itself due to fluctuations in the value of currency. It can be said to replace the role of gold in a gold clause, which stipulates that claims and debts are settled based on the value of gold at a certain point in time, with the US dollar. Dollar clauses are often stipulated in long-term loans, securities investments, trade settlements, etc. Source: Heibonsha World Encyclopedia, 2nd Edition Information |
国際間の取引において,米ドル以外の通貨建てによる契約の場合,その決済を行うとき米ドルの価値を基準とすることを定めた約款のこと。ドル約款ともいう。 これは債権本体の価値が貨幣価値の変動に伴って変化し,そのために取引当事者が不測の損害をこうむることを避けるための条項である。債権債務の決済をある時点の金の価値によって行う金約款における金の役割を,米ドルにおきかえたものといえる。とくに長期貸付け,証券投資,貿易決済などにおいて,ドル・クローズが規定されることが多い。
