| Abstract: | Three óears after the euro's introduction, the authors discuss its role in foreign exchange and international debt securities markets on the basis of a comprehensive set of data sources. In spot foreign exchange markets the euro's role resembles that of the deutschemark, with a dominant position in the Nordic and several Central European countries. Transaction costs in the important dollar-euro market are larger than they used to be for dollar-mark, but the same does not hold for any other major spot market. The authors discuss how this phenomenon may be explained by persistence of bid-ask quoting conventions in this market in the face of changed nominal parities. |
