  • The Euro: Internationalised at Birth
    The euro: internationalised at birth Frank Moss1 I. Introduction The birth of an international currency can be defined as the point in time at which a currency starts meaningfully assuming one of the traditional functions of money outside its country of issue.2 In the case of most currencies, this is not straightforwardly attributable to a specific date. In the case of the euro, matters are different for at least two reasons. First, internationalisation takes on a special meaning to the extent that the euro, being the currency of a group of countries participating in a monetary union is, by definition, being used outside the borders of a single country. Hence, internationalisation of the euro should be understood as non-residents of this entire group of countries becoming more or less regular users of the euro. Second, contrary to other currencies, the launch point of the domestic currency use of the euro (1 January 1999) was also the start date of its international use, taking into account the fact that it had inherited such a role from a number of legacy currencies that were issued by countries participating in Europe’s economic and monetary union (EMU). Taking a somewhat broader perspective concerning the birth period of the euro, this paper looks at evidence of the euro’s international use at around the time of its launch date as well as covering subsequent developments during the first decade of the euro’s existence. It first describes the birth of the euro as an international currency, building on the international role of its predecessor currencies (Section II).

But Community officials are increasingly doubtful whether the problems can be solved hy the end of 1976, the deadline for implementing the proposed system for the 1978 Connnunity Budget. In 1973 the Europe?n Commission had proposed harmoni­ zation of the VAT base in order to facilitate calculation of part of the Community Budget starting in '78 (Common Market Reports, Par. 3165). This proposal followed up on the Council's 1970 decision that the contributions to the Budget now derived from agricultural levies and customs du­ ties should be augmented as of 1979 by national VAT revenue obtained by applying a rate not exceeding 1% on a uniform assessment base.

In Nederland was het weinig anders. Het dagblad Trouw sprak na afloop van de verkiezingen over een uiterst saaie verkiezingscampagne: ‘geen flitsende debatten, geen zinderende spanning over de uitslag’.1 On- danks pogingen van de overheid en de politieke partijen het Neder- landse publiek te informeren over Europa en enthousiast te maken voor de verkiezingen, kwam de campagne nooit daadwerkelijk van de grond. Al in november 1976 was het Nationaal Comité Rechtstreekse Ver- kiezingen Europees Parlement opgericht, onder voorzitterschap van Anne Vondeling (pvda), die tevens voorzitter van de Tweede Kamer was. De achterliggende gedachte was dat de Nederlandse bevolking wel voorstander was van Europese integratie, maar dat de feitelijke kennis te wensen over liet. Het Comité, dat een budget van ongeveer zes miljoen gulden had, wilde de kiezers voorlichten en mobiliseren. Begin 1979 ging de publiciteitscampagne van start; advertenties verschenen in kranten en opiniebladen, er werden Postbus 51-spotjes uitgezonden en affiches verspreid.2 [1] De campagne van het Comité kreeg echter kri- tiek vanwege de eenzijdige, pro-Europese benadering. Volgens de Jonge Socialisten van de pvda zou het Comité geen melding maken van de ver- schillen tussen de deelnemende partijen en ten onrechte de suggestie wekken dat na de verkiezingen de invloed van het Europees Parlement zou toenemen.

    Parlement 2006 261006 27-10-2006 13:21 Pagina 144 Afscheid van Mister Euro In memoriam Wim Duisenberg (1935-2005) Bruno de Haas en Cees van Lotringen Wim Duisenberg had eigenlijk maar één ding veranderd bij De Nederlandsche Bank (DNB) toen hij in 1982 de legendarische Jelle Zijlstra opvolgde als president, zei hij zelf. Hij had van de gesloten centrale bank een instelling gemaakt die communiceerde met de samenleving, die uitlegde aan burgers wat haar missie was. Gezag moest je sinds de jaren zestig verdienen, je kreeg het niet meer cadeau, oordeelde hij. Daarom gaf Duisenberg opdracht om brochures te schrijven, als eerste: Hoedster van de gulden. Taken en werkwijze van De Nederlandsche Bank. Ook liet hij de pakhuizen van DNB inrichten als museum. De persconferentie bij de presenta- tie van het jaarverslag van DNB was niet langer off the record en hij gaf meer interviews. Duisenberg besefte dat een centrale bank geen prijsstabiliteit kon bereiken zonder maat- schappelijk draagvlak. Hij investeerde bewust in het smeden van dat draagvlak. Dat kon hij als geen ander, door zijn uitstraling en zijn vermogen om moeilijke economische onderwer- pen op een eenvoudige manier te presenteren. Alleen Jelle Zijlstra en hoogleraar Jan Pen konden dat even goed, vond hij zelf. Onvermoeibaar benadrukte hij het belang van prijssta- biliteit, een onafhankelijke centrale bank en gezonde overheidsfinanciën.
