Abstract

This article aims at estimating money demand for the euro area, the United States and the United Kingdom using a Dynamic Ordinary Least Squares (DOLS) estimator. Our findings show that (1) wealth effects on money demand are important in the euro area and the United Kingdom; (2) the impact of changes in the interest rate on real money holdings is negative and small; (3) goods are a reasonable alternative to money and (4) international currency substitution has a major influence on the behaviour of real money demand in the United Kingdom.
