ISBN 978-3–86558–738–1 (Printversion) ISBN 978-3–86558–739–8 (Internetversion) Abstract In this paper, we endeavour to determine the volume of euro banknotes issued by Germany that is in circulation outside Germany. In so doing, we draw a distinction between banknotes outstanding in non-euro-area countries and those that are in circulation in other euro-area countries. The analysis is based on various available statistics and, as an additional aid, on surveys (direct approaches). The observation period runs from 2002 to 2009. We discover that German euro banknotes to a total amount of approximately €220 billion are in circulation outside Germany. The lion’s share of roughly €160 billion is in non-euro-area countries, with the remaining €60 billion in other euro-area countries.

  • The European Central Bank's Monetary Policy During Its First 20
    PHILIPP HARTMANN European Central Bank FRANK SMETS European Central Bank The European Central Bank’s Monetary Policy during Its First 20 Years ABSTRACT On June 1, 2018, the European Central Bank (ECB) celebrated its 20th anniversary. This paper provides a comprehensive view of the ECB’s monetary policy over these two decades. The first section gives a chronological account of the macroeconomic and monetary policy developments in the euro area since the adoption of the euro in 1999, going through four cyclical phases “conditioning” ECB monetary policy. We describe the monetary policy deci- sions from the ECB’s perspective and against the background of its evolving monetary policy strategy and framework. We also highlight a number of the key, critical issues that were the subject of debate. The second section con- tains various assessments. We analyze the achievement of the price stability mandate and developments in the ECB’s credibility, and we also investigate the ECB’s interest rate decisions through the lens of a simple empirical inter- est rate reaction function. Finally, we present the ECB’s framework for think- ing about nonstandard monetary policy measures and review the evidence on their effectiveness. One of the main themes of the paper is how the ECB uti- lized its monetary policy to respond to the challenges posed by the European twin financial and sovereign debt crises and the subsequent slow economic recovery, making use of its relatively wide range of instruments, defining new ones where necessary, and developing the strategic underpinnings of its policy framework. Conflict of Interest Disclosure: The authors are senior managers of the European Central Bank, the public authority whose monetary policy is discussed in this paper.
