  • Estimation of Euro Currency in Circulation Outside the Euro Area1
    EXTERNAL STATISTICS DIVISION ECB-PUBLIC 6 April 2017 ETS/2017/091 Estimation of euro currency in circulation 1 outside the euro area 1. Introduction Recent empirical evidence on currency in circulation has shown a significant inconsistency between total currency in circulation and the estimates of holdings in various statistical domains.2 Some of the evidence points to the European Central Bank (ECB) estimate of euro currency circulating outside the euro area as a prominent cause of this inconsistency.3 In this context, in 2015 and 2016 the European System of Central Banks (ESCB) discussed alternative methods for the estimation of circulation outside the euro area. A new methodology was approved in December 2016 and introduced on 6 April 2017 with the release of quarterly balance of payments (b.o.p.) and international investment position (i.i.p.) statistics for the last quarter of 2016. The following sections present and explain the new methodology used to estimate euro currency holdings by non-euro area residents. 2. New estimation method: lower and upper bounds Given the large variability in the results of the various estimation methods tested and discussed by the ESCB Statistics Committee (STC) in 2016, it was decided to continue using a linear combination of two methods rather than selecting a single method. Two estimates have been chosen to set boundaries to circulation outside the euro area by establishing a lower limit (an estimate of minimum circulation under certain reasonable assumptions on not observable data) and an upper limit (an estimate of a maximum circulation, also on under certain assumptions).

Ex mis etebatrum in the New EU Member States of the Euro Adoption The The Adoption of the Euro in the New EU Member States: Repercussions of the Financial Crisis Miriam Allam* The new EU Member States are under the legal obligation to introduce the euro as soon as they meet the convergence/Maastricht criteria. However, their status as “Member States with a derogation” (Art. 122 TEC) gives them some leeway in setting the target date. In 2007, Slovenia was the only country of this group that joined the euro-area; Malta and Cyprus followed in 2008, and the latest Member State to adopt the euro was Slovakia in 2009. For the other Central and East 27 European Countries (CEEC) the timing is still unknown; official announcements are not consistent and target dates vary from 2010 to 2015. This article discusses the obligations related to the European Monetary Union (EMU) during the different stages of the EU and eurozone accession process, whilst also reflecting upon the impact of the financial crisis on eurozone enlargement and addressing the current debate on unilateral euroisation. Introduction The new Member States that joined the EU in 2004 and 2007 analysis of the implications of EMU upon and after EU ac- have to adopt the euro as soon as they meet the Maastricht cession.

  • International Money and Common Currencies in Historical Perspective
    International Money and Common Currencies in Historical Perspective Gerald P. Dwyer Jr.* Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta James R. Lothian Fordham University May 2002 Abstract: We review the history of international monies and the theory related to their adoption and use. There are four key characteristics of these currencies: high unitary value; relatively low inflation rates for long periods; issuance by major economic and trading powers; and spontaneous, as opposed to planned, adoption internationally. The economic theory of the demand for money provides support for the importance of these characteristics. The value of a unit is arbitrary for a fiat money, but the other characteristics are likely to be important for determining any fiat money that will be the international money in the future. If the euro continues to exist for the next half century or so and has a relatively stable value, we conclude that the euro is likely to be serious competition for the dollar as the international money.

  • The Irish Pound from Origins To
    Quarterly Bulletin Spring 2003 The Irish Pound: From Origins to EMU by John Kelly* ABSTRACT The history of the Irish pound spans seventy-five years, from the introduction of the Saorsta´t pound in 1927 to the changeover to euro banknotes and coin in 2002. For most of this period, the Irish pound had a fixed link to sterling. It was only in the 1970s that this link was seriously questioned when it failed to deliver price stability. This article provides a brief overview of the pound’s origins, before looking in more detail at the questioning of the sterling link and events leading up to Ireland joining the EMS. Although early experiences in the EMS were disappointing, membership eventually delivered low inflation, both in absolute terms and relative to the UK, and laid the foundations for the later move to EMU. The path to EMU is followed in some detail. This covers practical preparations, assessment of benefits and costs and necessary changes in monetary policy instruments and legislation. Finally, the completion of the changeover encompasses the huge tasks of printing and minting sufficient amounts of euro cash, of distributing this to banks and retailers, and of withdrawing Irish pound cash, as well as the efforts of all sectors to ensure that the final changeover from the Irish pound to the euro was smooth and rapid. 1. Introduction The Irish pound ceased to be legal tender on 9 February 2002. This brought down the final curtain on a monetary regime which had its origins some 75 years earlier with the introduction of the Saorsta´t pound in 1927.
