Abstract

In the past few years there had been numerous debates on the subject of 2008’ RON speculative attack. This was leading to many articles and commentaries being written, by both academic specialists and banking experts, all of which focusing on 2008’ NBR’s monetary policies undertaken actions and their subsequent effects on the local money markets. However, none of these papers was answering to the basic questions of what, how and why really happened on the interbank and money exchange markets those days. We will be emphasizing herewith some insights to these questions.
