| | European Monetary Union |
 | | A monetary union will equip the European Union to extend economic and political stability to Central and Eastern Europe, a region in which the United States would otherwise be called upon to play a greater role. | | | First, to be successful, the members of the monetary union will have to tackle a number of economic reforms, labor market reforms, deregulation, privatization, and further fiscal consolidation. | | | Instability stemming from the formation of the monetary union itself, the continuing effects of the Asian financial crisis and a new currency or financial crisis, perhaps in the neighborhood of the EU, such as in Central or Eastern Europe, could require that emergency operations and international coordination be undertaken. |

| | European Monetary Union: Operating Monetary Policy - Finance & Development - September 1996 |
| | Stage 3 is defined as the ultimate stage of economic and monetary union wherein the currencies of the participating EU countries are irrevocably locked and replaced by a single currency, the euro. | | | The Maastricht Treaty on European Union states that members of the European Union (EU) should decide before the end of 1996 whether the majority of member countries meet the specified convergence criteria to start Stage 3 of the Economic and Monetary Union and whether it is appropriate to enter Stage 3. | | | The models for the execution of foreign exchange operations are broadly analogous to those for domestic monetary operations: a centralized model in which the ECB carries out interventions from one single dealing room, and a decentralized system in which NCBs receive instructions from the ECB and undertake the actual interventions in their home markets. |

| | In the past the economic benefits of monetary union have often been recognized, and there were attempts to achieve currency unions in ancient Greece as well as in the Middle Ages. | | | Scandinavian Monetary Union : this union, which lasted from 1870 until 1924, was set up on the model of the Latin Monetary Union. | | | The German customs union was established in 1834 and by 1857 monetary union was also achieved (a dual currency system based on the North German Thaler and the South German Gulden irrevocably fixed at a rate of 1:1.75). |

| | Euro, Italy, European monetary union - Money Week |
| | It might get messy any country leaving the euro would see a good deal of instability (and probably rocketing interest rates) but there are plenty of examples of 'permanent' currency unions breaking up (such as the Latin Monetary Union of 1865-1927, which brought together France, Belgium, Switzerland, Italy and later Greece). | | | The chief problem is that the one-size-fits-all monetary straitjacket the euro imposes together with the stability and growth pact are not able to take account of individual countries' economic difficulties. | | | In theory, there isn't a process in place: European monetary union was supposed to be permanent and irrevocable. |

| | History shows EMU's success may depend on political union |

| | Part and parcel of joining a monetary union is the loss of independent monetary policies in each of the member countries, which limits the ability to use monetary policy to stabilize economic disturbances that affect only a subset of the countries in the union. | | | The creation of a monetary union in Europe, which is set to expand to include several more countries in coming years, offers new challenges for fiscal and monetary policymakers. | | | Monetary policy rules are often expressed such that the choice variable for the central bank, usually a short-term nominal interest rate, is determined by a number of economic variables according to a mathematical equation. |

| | IMF doubts over West African monetary union |
| | In considering the possible net economic benefits of monetary union, similarity of production structures, factor mobility, flexibility of wages and prices and symmetry of shocks hitting the economies all enhance the attractiveness of such a union. | | | EVEN as the 15-member European Union has been finding it hard to achieve economic and monetary union (EMU) with several teething troubles dogging it, the International Monetary Fund(IMF) has cast doubts over the grand proposal of a Monetary Union in West Africa (ECOWAS) to be accomplished by 2004. | | | The IMF economists said that though the project has been described in some detail it is not clear how the list of planned policy measures could be reconciled with the timetable of a monetary union of the non-WAEMU countries (the second monetary union) by 2003 and overall monetary union by 2004. |

| | Elusive Union: The Process of Economic and Monetary Union in Europe |
| | In this `two-level' policy process (the separation of activities toward political union and toward monetary union) monetary union is being pursued in a highly elitist fashion by financial technicians, central bankers and their international political cohorts. | | | Furthermore, EMU remains a fragile prospect because it rests on decisions to pursue monetary union prior to having in place a strong unified political union to give it necessary support and establish the rules of the game. | | | Although almost all these economic questions are historic issues, they don't directly appear in the initial narrative on historic monetary unions because of its focus on the necessity of prior political union. |
