Testing for the stability of Money Demand in Italy: has the Euro influenced the Monetary transmission Mechanism?
Résumé
Stability of money demand is a crucial issue for the efficacy of monetary policy. This is particularly true in the presence of significant exogenous shocks to the monetary system. By implementing the most recent econometric testing procedures, this paper intends to investigate the consistency of the stability of money demand in Italy, one of the larger EMU countries, before and after the EMU. Among others, the objective is, indeed, to ascertain the effect of a change in the currency regime on the monetary aggregates and to provide a valid empirical model which is a viable tool for policy performance.
