Abstract
Stabilizing the exchange rate is a major monetary policy goal in a number of CIS countries. We present a technical traders–fundamentalists model of the foreign exchange market that allows us to classify de facto exchange rate management and derive a market based measure of the credibility of these exchange rate regimes. In our empirical analysis we compare the exchange rate policies of Belarus, Kazakhstan, Russia and Ukraine with the benchmark of three candidates for EU accession, namely Bulgaria, Romania and Turkey. Our results indicate that markets assign a relatively high degree of credibility to the exchange rate management of the CIS countries. The paths to credibility, however, were quite different.
