The Crawling Peg in Historical Perspective

In: Exchange Rate Rules

Author

  • John Williamson

Abstract

This paper is intended to provide a guide to the evolution of thought about the crawling peg, with a view to furnishing a base from which renewed discussion of the topic can proceed fruitfully. It starts with a brief consideration of certain terminological issues. This is followed by what is in effect a survey article of the academic literature on the crawling peg. There is then a parallel account of the history of discussions at the official level, followed by an enumeration of those cases in which the crawling peg has been adopted. The final section contains a reformulation of the proposal suggested by the preceding discussion, aimed at providing a basis for discussion during the conference.
