Are business cycles in Euroland similar?

Author

  • Erich Langmantel

Abstract

The members of the European Monetary Union have a joint monetary policy and thus form a joint economic alliance. For such an economic alliance to function, the business cycles in the participating countries should have common structural features. The results of a structural time-series model shows that at least the three largest economies in the EMU - Germany, France and Italy - are in fact a very close economic alliance.
