Abstract

La crise de la zone euro a révélé trois erreurs majeures de conception. La première erreur fut de réaliser une union monétaire sans se rendre compte que l'essentiel de la création monétaire ne viendrait pas de la Banque centrale européenne (BCE), mais des banques commerciales. En zone euro, les billets et les pièces en circulation représentent moins de 10 % de la masse monétaire au sens large, dont l'essentiel est constitué de dépôts bancaires. Laisser chaque État membre réguler et surveiller ses banques, c'était placer 90 % de la masse monétaire commune sous la surveillance des seules instances nationales. On connaît le résultat.
