The Choice of Exchange Rate Regime and the Real Sector. What Can We Learn from the Experience of Transition Economies?

Description

The project won the Global Research Competition 2002 sponsored by Global Development Network. It was carried  by Przemek Kowalski, Wojciech Paczynski, and Lukasz Rawdanowicz. The project has investigated differences in the performance of tradable and non-tradable sectors under corner exchange rate regimes (i.e., fixed vs. floating). Empirical analysis was concentrated on seven Central and East European countries.

The results of the project were presented at a seminar at the University of Dortmund in June 2003 and during the Applied Econometrics Association conference in Toledo in November 2003.
