Because the choice of international currencies is mainly a market-driven process, money's functions as a medium of exchange and a unit of account tend to predominate over its function as a store of value and to lead to the use of a single international currency or, at most, several international currencies. To explain this phenomenon, consider that modern portfolio theory suggests that—in order to diversify their risks—investors will typically choose to hold a wide range of international currencies as assets, with the particular quantities of each currency depending upon their respective risk and return characteristics. Consequently, if the choice underlying the international use of currencies depended exclusively on asset motives, many currencies would be held and there would be no reason why the dollar should dominate investors' portfolios. Over the past twenty-five years or so, for example, deutsche mark-denominated assets and yen-denominated assets have provided considerably higher returns—in terms of nominal yields plus capital appreciations—than have dollar-denominated assets.
