Abstract

[fre] Cet article évalue le degré d'orthodoxie des caisses d'émission modernes en se fondant sur la théorie des caisses d'émission, elle-même inspirée des mécanismes classiques d'ajustement de la balance des paiements. La caractéristique révélatrice de l'orthodoxie du régime serait l'interdiction d'utiliser des avoirs intérieurs comme contrepartie de la base monétaire, ce qui peut se traduire par l'interdiction des politiques de neutralisation des flux externes. Le contrefactuel orthodoxe au régime moderne est donné par l'histoire ; il s'agit du grand nombre de caisses d'émission classiques ayant existé entre 1880 et 1960. Ces caisses d'émission étaient sous le contrôle de l'administration coloniale britannique qui imposait une réglementation de la base monétaire interdisant les contreparties locales. Cette option théorique est testée au travers d'un modèle simple d'ajustement de la balance des paiements. La démarche économétrique est fondée sur des tests de stationnarité des avoirs intérieurs nets. . Classification JEL : C22, C23, E51, E52, F31. F32, F33 [eng] Are currency board arrangements the illegitimate child of the orthodox currency boards ? . In the exchange rate argument surrounding Argentina bankruptcy, the currency board arrangements (CBA) born in the 90' s have been accused to be the illegitimate child of the orthodox currency boards (CBO). The accusation rests on a somewhat blurred argumentation gathering both partisans and opponents of the regime. Here, we try to give tractable evidence coming from the currency board theory and residing in classical price species flow mechanism. To us the fundamental feature denoting orthodoxy is the forbiddance of net foreign asset in base money counterpart. The orthodox counterfactual to CBA is easy to define as a great number of the classical CBO (1880-1960) was under the control of the colonial administration that insured the net domestic asset forbiddance. We give to this theoretical evidence an empirical test in order to assess the degree of orthodoxy of the CBAs. The empirical test consists in evaluating the stationnarity of net domestic assets. . JEL classification : C22, C23, E51, E52, F31, F32, F33
