In 1994 the European Monetary Institute was created as transitional step in establishing the European Central Bank . (ECB) and a common currency. The ECB, which was established in 1998, is responsible for setting a single monetary policy and interest rate for the adopting nations, in conjunction with their national central banks. Late in 1998, Austria, Belgium, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Portugal, and Spain cut their interest rates to a nearly uniformly low level in an effort to promote growth and to prepare the way for a unified currency.

    http://europa.eu.int/pol/emu/print_overview_en.htm
    
    Extractions: Back EU member governments run their economies according to similar principles of economic management. They co-ordinate their policies in order to deliver steady growth, more jobs and a competitive economy across the EU, one which will at the same time preserve the European social model and protect the environment. All EU member states are part of economic and monetary union (EMU), whose purpose is to integrate the economies of EU countries more effectively. Integration promotes growth and prosperity. It requires closely coordinated economic policy. Member states decide jointly on the basis of proposals from the Commission on the broad approach they will each follow. They are then free to implement these guidelines using the tax and social welfare policy mix which best suits their country. 12 of the 25 member states have taken integration a major step further by adopting the same currency, the euro. Elevencountries adopted the euro at its launch (as a virtual currency) on 1 January 1999: Austria, Belgium, Germany, Finland, France, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Portugal and Spain. Greece adopted the euro on 1 January 2001. All these countries introduced the euro in cash form on 1 January 2002. Using the euro lowers the cost of cross-border business. Price comparability across borders increases competition. Individuals also benefit from this process; they make savings by not having to change money when travelling within the euro area, by being able to compare prices more readily, and because the cost of transferring money across borders has come down.

    A monetary crisis can have very significant economic effects, When a nationis without a fiat currency system it is quite common for the fiat currency  
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Money
    
    Extractions: Money Money is any marketable good or token used by a society as a store of value, a medium of exchange, and a unit of account. Since the needs arise naturally, societies organically create a money object when none exists. In other cases, a central authority creates a money object; this is more frequently the case in modern societies with paper money. The value of money emerges in no small part from its utility as a medium of exchange, however its utility as a medium of exchange depends on it having recognised market value. Hence these two aspects of money are interdependent. Commodity money was the first form of money to emerge. Under a commodity money system, the object used as money has inherent value . It is usually adopted to simplify transactions in a barter economy; thus it functions first as a medium of exchange. It quickly begins functioning as a store of value, since holders of perishable goods can easily convert them into durable money. In modern economies, commodity money has also been used as a unit of account. Gold-backed currency notes are a common form of commodity money.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiat_money
    
    Extractions: Fiat money or fiat currency , is money such as paper money , that is current or legal tender as satisfaction for money debts by government fiat, that is by law not by convention ( fiat is from the Latin "let it be"). edit edit With the establishment of government owned or sponsored central banks, many governments made central bank notes unlimited legal tender, in addition to gold (or silver) coin, by government fiat. This is the most common use of the term fiat currency. Typically, fiat currencies have driven out the principal metallic legal tender currency via central bank default, leading to hoarding, melting or export of gold (and/or silver) coins. This breaks down a gold standard (or silver standard or bimetallic standard) and leaves a pure fiat currency, however under the gold bullion exchange standard, the currency may still be technically redeemable. Following the breakdown of the Bretton Woods Gold Bullion Exchange Standard with the default of the US Federal Government in 1971, fiat currencies became entirely irredeemable. As of 2004 , most currencies in the world are fiat monies. However, the situation with major currencies, such as the

While the idea may seem strange to most people, economists have debated the question of competing money supplies off and on since Adam Smith's time. Most recently, trends in banking deregulation and important pockets of dissatisfaction with the performance of central banks (such as the Federal Reserve System in the United States) have made the question of competing money supplies topical again. Some leading economists have become sympathetic to laissez-faire in money, including Nobel Laureates Friedrich A. Hayek and Milton Friedman, as well as Eugene Fama of the University of Chicago, Neil Wallace of the University of Minnesota, and Leland B. Yeager of Auburn University. Two sorts of monetary competition already exist today. First, private banks and financial firms compete in supplying different brands of checking accounts (also known as checkable deposits) and traveler's checks. Second, each national currency (like the U.S. dollar) competes with others (like pounds sterling, deutsche marks, and yen) to be the currency in which international contracts and portfolio assets are denominated. (Economists refer to paper money that is not convertible into an underlying asset like gold or silver as a "fiat" currency.) Much more competition in money has existed in the past. Under "free banking" systems, private banks competitively issued their own paper currency notes, called "bank notes," that were redeemable for underlying "real," or "basic," monies like gold or silver. And competition among those basic monies pitted gold against silver and copper.

We may not think we have enough of it, but in many ways, we tend to take money for granted. When you buy a pair of jeans or a CD, for example, you never wonder whether the merchant will accept the bills and coins in your wallet as payment. But suppose money as we know it didn't exist. How would you pay for the things you want to buy? But their system, called barter, had many shortcomings. How many fish would it take to buy a bag of flour or an oil lamp, for example? Suppose the merchant didn't want fish, or they spoiled before he could trade them to someone else. Later, as trade developed with other colonies and countries, colonists used various foreign coins, such as gold Spanish reales. That's when money as we know it finally gained a foothold in the U.S. economy.

    http://www.oecdobserver.org/news/fullstory.php/aid/882/After_40_years:_Towards_a
    
    Extractions: International financial crises have been an on-and-off feature of the global economy in the past 40 years. Understanding how the international monetary arrangements came into play can point to ways of establishing a greater degree of control in future, argues Professor Mundell Forty years ago, when the OECD replaced the Organisation for European Economic Cooperation (OEEC), the world was very different. A major standoff was underway in the Cold War, there was a crisis in the international monetary system, and globalisation, if the word was used at all, meant freer trade within the “free world.” In the past 40 years much has changed. The international monetary system broke down and flexible exchange rates led to increased international monetary instability. Social revolutions occurred in gender and race and the balance of terror of the Cold War ended with the fall of the Berlin Wall. The oil-price revolution of the 1970s effected a huge transfer of wealth and power to the Middle East. Computer and

The monetary unit chosen as a measure of value need not, however, be used widely, or even at all, as a medium of exchange.
