In this study, the determination of optimal monetary policy in unionised economies is considered from the new political economy point of view. In the empirical part of the study it is shown that, in addition to the institutional position of the central bank, labour market institutions also matter for successful anti-inflationary policy. As regards thepositionof the central bank, the results suggest that it is important to distinguish between the political independence of the bank and the independence of its personnel.
