Exchange Rates, Policy Convergence, and the European Monetary System

Ronald MacDonald; Mark P. Taylor

The Review of Economics and Statistics 1991

We analyze the degree of policy convergence of EMS member countries relative to that of some non-EMS countries. Interestingly, we find convergence for the nominal and real exchange rates and money supplies of the EMS members but not for the non-EMS countries. We also provide some evidence to support the "German leadership hypothesis" in the context of intra-EMS monetary policy convergence.
