Abstract

[fre] L’article dresse un bilan de la politique monétaire européenne trois ans après la mise en place de l’euro et le transfert de la pleine souveraineté monétaire à la BCE. Les premiers enseignements montrent que sa stratégie de politique monétaire s’est révélée un outil utile à l’élaboration de mesures de politique monétaire appropriées. L’approche prend en compte la complexité de l’économie de la zone et paraît assez robuste pour faire face aux mutations de l’économie mondiale. Dans ce cadre, les décisions de politique monétaire s’expliquent aisément. Bien que la politique monétaire de la BCE soit généralement considérée comme appropriée, le fait qu’un certain nombre de questions aient été soulevées par des observateurs extérieurs donne à penser qu’il est nécessaire de poursuivre le processus de familiarisation avec cette nouvelle approche et d’en intensifier la communication. . Classification JEL : E5, E52, E58 [eng] The European monetary policy : an achievement after three years . The article draws up achievement of the European monetary policy three years after the implementation of the euro and the transfer of the full monetary sovereignty in the BCE. The first lessons show that its monetary policy strategy allows the elaboration of appropriate measures of monetary policy. The approach takes into account the complexity of the euro zone economy and countered rather sturdy to face the evolutions of the world economy. In this framework, the decisions of monetary policy are clear. Although the monetary policy of the BCE is generally considered as suited, some questions were raised by outside observers. These interrogations require that it is necessary to pursue the process of familiarization with this new approach and to intensify the communication . JEL classifications : E5, E52, E58
