Abstract in another language
There is a wide consensus among policy makers that the EMS has developed into an asymmetric, fixed exchange rate system with Germany being the center country. This view of asymmetry, which is also supported by the game theoretic literature, is at odds with empirical work, which claims that Germany is a member among peers. In contrast to previous studies this paper adopts a more structural approach and derives testable restrictions of the German dominance hypothesis from a general two-country macro model. Our empirical results indicate a pronounced dominance of German monetary policy in the EMS.
