Abstract

Das Papier untersucht die durch eine Europäische Währungsunion zu erwartenden Änderungen der Geldschöpfungsgewinne der Mitgliedsländer. Dazu werden die zwischen 1980 und 1995 erzielten einzelstaatlichen Geldschöpfungsgewinne nach dem monetären und dem Opportunitätskostenkonzept ermittelt. Anhand von zwölf Szenarien mit verschiedenen Hypothesen über Inflations- und Wachstumsrate wird der Geldschöpfungsgewinn der Europäischen Zentralbank prognostiziert und gemäß dem Gewinnverteilungskriterium des Maastrichter Vertrages den Mitgliedsländern zugeordnet. Für die südeuropäischen Länder Spanien und Italien sowie insbesondere Griechenland und Portugal ergeben sich Mindereinnahmen von bis zu 3 \% des realen Bruttoinlandsprodukts. Insbesondere unter Berücksichtigung der Fiskalkriterien des Maastrichter Vertrages erscheint es fraglich, ob diese Einnahmeverluste tragbar sind.
