They were created in 1969 to create an alternative to gold and USD as the only two global reserve assets. While not currencies in themselves, SDRs are held by the fund\u2019s member countries as a way to hedge against their reliance on costly debt to build up stocks of foreign reserves.<\/p>\n<p><strong>O<\/strong><strong>kay, but if an SDR isn\u2019t a currency itself, how do we \u201cspend\u201d it? <\/strong>Think of it as taking pressure off the \u201creal\u201d currency in our bank account \u2014 we can use SDRs to pay down debt, for example, leaving USD \/ EUR \/ etc to continue circulating in our economy. As <a href=\"https:\/\/www.imf.org\/en\/Topics\/special-drawing-right\/seven-things-you-need-to-know-about-sdr-allocations\">the IMF\u2019s explainer page<\/a> suggests: \u201cCountries can exchange their SDRs for hard currencies with other IMF members. This has historically been done on a voluntary basis, with countries in a stronger financial position agreeing to help others when needed.
