Extractions: The uro: Our Currency Origins of the euro: Final stage of EMU - birth of the euro The euro became the new currency for eleven Member States and a single monetary policy was introduced under the authority of the ECB, heralding the third and final stage of monetary union. Legally, the participating national currencies had ceased to exist and became non-decimal sub-divisions of the euro. Euro area financial markets switched to the euro, including foreign exchange, share and bond markets. New euro area government debt was exclusively issued in euro as from that day. The three year transition period before the introduction of euro notes and coins began, with the principle of no compulsion, no prohibition meaning people and businesses had the freedom to carry out transactions in euro, but were under no obligation to do so. EU Heads of State and Government meeting at the Feira European Council decided that Greece had fulfilled the convergence criteria and would join the euro from January 2001. The rate for conversion of Greek drachma to the euro was also announced.

Greece followed suit on January 1, 2001. The Vatican City also participated in the changeover. This changeover is now complete. It is worth noting that any place that previously used one or more of the currencies listed below has now also adopted the Euro. This applies to the Principality of Andorra, the Principality of Monaco, and the Republic of San Marino. This of course applies automatically to any territories, departments, possessions, or collectivities of Euro-zone countries, such as the Azores, Balearic Islands, the Canary Islands, Europa Island, French Guiana, Guadeloupe, Juan de Nova, the Madeira Islands, Martinique, Mayotte, Reunion, Saint-Martin, Saint Pierre and Miquelon, to name just a few. Euro bank notes and coins began circulating in the above countries on January 1, 2002. At that time, all transactions in those countries were valued in Euro, and the "old" notes and coins of these countries were gradually withdrawn from circulation. The precise dates that each "old" currency ceased being legal tender are noted in the table below.

Where there is motive, there will always be opportunity." Linda Davies The quotation is from a speech on the Psychology of Risk, Speculation and Fraud , at a conference on the Future of European Monetary Union in Amsterdam. For the first time since the fall of the Roman Empire most of Europe has a single, common currency. The US dollar faces the first challenge to its hegemony since it displaced the British pound sterling as the world's most important currency after the First World War. However, if the Euro is to assume a wider role it will have to flourish in its own continent and survive challenges to the stability of European economies first. What are the prospects for European monetary union? This page contains links sources expressing a variety of viewpoints for and against.
Extractions: Political Introduction Political Economic Business/Trade For Against Consumers Precedents Links to in-depth analysis At almost every stage of the European Union's evolution Britain has adopted a cautious and hesitant stance, only to decide belatedly that closer involvement would be beneficial. The result has been then that during some of the most formative periods of the EU's development Britain has been on the outside and unable to influence events. Hardly surprising therefore that she so often seems at odds with the culture of the EU and its institutions, seeing them as being dominated by the Germans and the French. The euro is just another example of a phase of integration to which Britain will probably eventually sign up, but which she is currently having no say in shaping. The longer that Britain takes a sceptical approach to the euro the less likely that the project will evolve to her liking. Eurosceptics claim that the single currency is merely a step towards the political union of Europe and that by participating Britain would be tied-in to that process. There is no basis for this argument, since Britain would be under no obligation to develop closer political ties with the EU or to give up her sovereignty. Swapping the pound for the euro does not entail surrendering political independence.
Extractions: Trade Introduction Political Economic Business/Trade For Against Consumers Precedents Links to in-depth analysis By joining the single currency British businesses will enjoy the benefit of a fixed exchange rate with Britain's biggest single trading partner i.e. the eurozone. The benefit of a fixed exchange rate is that it provides companies with the ability to plan and budget for future activity and expansion since: b) The value of a transaction will not have changed due to currency fluctuations during the time that elapses between the signing of a deal and the receipt of payment. At present, a British company selling goods or services to a eurozone customer runs the risk of eventually receiving payment in a currency which has subsequently devalued against the pound.
