| Abstract: | A panel dataset for six Central and Eastern European countries (Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Romania, Slovenia and Slovakia) is used to estimate the monetary (here as: monet-y.) exchange rate (here as: e-rat/s.) model with panel cointegration methods, incl. the Pooled Mean Group estimator, the Fully Modified Least Square estimator (here as: S-e.) and the Dynamic Least S-e. The monet-y. model is able to convincingly explain the long-run exchange rate relationships of a group of CEECs, particularly when this is supplemented by a Balassa–Samuelson effect. The estimated long-run monet-y. equations are used to compute equilibrium e-rats. Finally, discussed are the implications for the accession of selected countries to the European Economic and Monetary Union (or EMU). |
