| Abstract: | This article investigates the relevance of the exchange rate regime for macroeconomic stability. Hypothetical macroeconomic developments are simulated under different hypothetical regimes in Sweden during the period 1974-94. The main question is how stable output would have been if Sweden had had a floating exchange rate regime. Would it have been better with a floating exchange rate the actual quasi-fixed regime? Also the development with an irrevocably fixed exchange rate is investigated. The findings indicate that the choice of exchange rate regime does influence macroeconomic stability. |
