Abstract

The aim of this paper is to study the structural convergence of money demand functions in six European countries (German reunification, France, Spain, Italy, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands). We present a dynamic analysis of structural changes that affect national money demand coefficients (elasticity and semi-elasticity) during the 1982-1997’s period. If heterogenous behaviours appear, we can observe, in pre-EMU countries, an increase in the inflation rate’s dispersion; that can cause problems for the EBC in its choice of monetary strategy. The results allow us to identify a process of monetary convergence though it is not achieved, the homogeneity of the behaviour having been observed only in one case (M2 aggregate in the Netherlands)...
