Abstract

This paper presents an overview of the channels of monetary transmission and their manifestation in Bulgaria – a country in a currency board arrangement – in the first five years after the introduction of the regime. The presence of such a mechanism of transmission requires some form of macroeconomic discretion. The latter is approximated here with dynamics in the single fiscal account present on the balance sheet of the currency board.
