Abstract

The authors analyze the degree of policy convergence of EMS member countries relative to that of some non-EMS countries. Interestingly, they find convergence for the nominal and real exchange rates and money supplies of the EMS members, but not for the non-EMS countries. The authors also provide some evidence to support the "German leadership hypothesis" in the context of intra-EMS monetary policy convergence. Copyright 1991 by MIT Press.
