Prior to 2004, it was known as the European Medicines Evaluation Agency or the European Medicines Evaluation Agency (EIA). [4] [5] The EMA was established in 1995, with funding from the European Union and the pharmaceutical industry, as well as indirect subsidies from the Member States, its stated intention to harmonise (but not replace) the work of existing national medical regulators. The hope was that this plan would not only reduce the annual pharmaceutical companies cost 350 million euros resulting from having to win separate approvals from each Member State, but also that it would eliminate protectionist tendencies of sovereign states that do not wish to approve new medicines that could compete with those already produced by domestic pharmaceutical companies. Coreper was established after more than seven years of negotiations between EU governments and replaced the Committee on Proprietary Medicinal Products and the Committee for Veterinary Medicinal Products, although both were reborn as key scientific advisory committees. The agency was in London before the UK's vote to leave the European Union, relocated to Amsterdam in March 2019. [6] [7] Functions This section does not mention sources.

The Management Board shall comprise one representative from each of the 28 Member States, two representatives of the European Commission, two representatives of the European Parliament, two representatives of patient organisations, one representative of doctors' organisations and one representative of veterinary organisations. The Agency decentralises its scientific evaluation of medicines through a network of around 4500 experts across the EU.

  • Euro Adoption in Romania: an Exploration of Convergence Criteria
    “Ovidius” University Annals, Economic Sciences Series Volume XX, Issue 2 /2020 Euro Adoption in Romania: An Exploration of Convergence Criteria Georgiana-Loredana Schipor “Ovidius” University of Constanta, Faculty of Economic Sciences, Romania [email protected] Abstract The aim of this paper is to analyze the position of Romania towards the Maastricht criteria, starting from the assumption that meeting the nominal convergence criteria is no longer enough for the Romanian adoption of euro. The most significant risks that the artificially integrated countries must face after the accession to the Euro Area were identified, using a large number of economic indicators that were distilled in order to design the Romanian progress in the process. The Romanian entrance into the Eurozone emphasize its major cost: the loss of monetary policy independence. The current methodological approach is twofold. First, the nominal and real convergence criteria were examined based on one-point-in-time approach. Second, it was considered the Romanian people perception about the adoption of the euro currency in accordance with a sequence of key-events suggesting a significant change due to multiple abandoned adoption targets, Brexit event or the pandemic context. Key words: nominal convergence, real convergence, Euro Area, Romania J.E.L. classification: F15, F44, E52 1. Introduction The European monetary integration is subject to a permanent debate in the Romanian context, the opinions being in the direction that meeting the nominal convergence criteria is no longer enough for the Romanian adoption of euro. If the cyclical economic events are not correlated among the Member States, the catalysts efforts transform into a significant risk the artificially integrated countries.

  • The Welfare Cost of the Emu for Transition Countries
    DOI: 10.18267/j.pep.493 THE WELFARE COST OF THE EMU FOR TRANSITION COUNTRIES Alexandra Ferreira-Lopes* Abstract: The Czech Republic, Hungary, and Poland are set to join the Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) in the near future. This paper offers a framework for the quantitative evaluation of the economic costs of joining the EMU. Using an open economy dynamic general equilibrium model with sticky prices, we investigate the economic implications of the loss of monetary policy fl exibility associated with EMU for each of these economies. The main benefi t of this general equilibrium approach is that we can directly evaluate the effects of monetary policy in terms of welfare. Our fi ndings suggest that the Czech Republic and Poland may experience sizable welfare costs as a result of joining the EMU. Results for Hungary are less striking as welfare costs in this country seem to be negligible in the benchmark economy. Nevertheless, costs of joining the EMU are higher if government shocks are important and when the trade share with the EMU is small. Keywords: monetary policy, euro, welfare analysis, Czech Republic, Poland, Hungary JEL Classifi cation: C68, E52, F41 1. Introduction Should Poland, Hungary, and the Czech Republic adopt the euro? In this paper we construct a model to evaluate the economic costs of the loss of monetary policy associated with joining the EMU for each of these countries, the largest economies that joined the European Union (EU) in May of 2004. Our focus is on the loss of autonomy of monetary policy and its implications for business cycle synchronization.

  • Croatian Kuna: Money, Or Just a Currency? Evidence from the Interbank Market
    Davor Mance, Bojana Olgic Drazenovic, and Stella Suljic Nikolaj. 2019. Croatian Kuna: Money, or just a Currency? Evidence from the Interbank Market. UTMS Journal of Economics 10 (2): 149–161. Original scientific paper (accepted November 6, 2019) CROATIAN KUNA: MONEY, OR JUST A CURRENCY? EVIDENCE FROM THE INTERBANK 1 MARKET Davor Mance2 Bojana Olgic Drazenovic Stella Suljic Nikolaj Abstract Modern sovereign money is accepted as an institution in virtue of the collective intentionality of the acceptance of the sovereign status function declaration it being the official currency of a country. A status function declaration may not create money it may only create a currency. How does one test the fact that an official currency also has all the properties of money? We propose a rather simple test based on the Granger causality of the acceptance of a currency in virtue of money if, and only if, the allocation function of its market interest rate is not rejected. This condition is fulfilled if the interest rate is its genuine allocator. This is the case if the changes in quantity cause the change in the interest rate as a price of money i.e. its true opportunity cost. We find that market interest rate changes are Granger caused by changes in quantities of traded euros on the overnight banking market but not by changes in the quantity of traded Croatian kuna. Thus, the Croatian kuna is only the domestic currency of Croatia, and the euro is its true money. Keywords: money functions, euroization, ZIBOR, Granger causality. Jel Classification: E31; E43; E47; E52; G17 INTRODUCTION The fact that we call something “money” is observer relative: it only exists relative to its users and relative to the users’ perspective considering something a money.

Based on that, and taking into account Croatia's close ties to the euro area, we es- timate that the introduction of the euro, due to lower transac- tion costs, easier price comparison and currency risk reduc- tion, might provide a small boost to Croatian trade in goods and services, particularly in tourism, and encourage foreign investment.
