Abstract

Existing work on the potential role of the euro as an international currency generally focuses on the means-of-payment and store-of-value functions. The unit-of-account function is often left aside, perhaps because trade invoicing is especially subject to inertia, due to network externalities, or because this function is considered to be a consequence of other functions.
