Abstract: This paper takes a panel cointegration approach to the estimation of short- and long-run exchange rate pass-through (ERPT) to import prices in the European countries. Although economic theory suggests a long-run relationship between import prices and exchange rate, in recent empirical studies its existence has either been overlooked, or it has proven dicult to establish. Resorting to novel tests for panel cointegration, we nd support for the equilibrium relationship hypothesis. Exchange rate pass-through elasticities, estimated by two di erent techniques for cointegrated panel regressions, give insight into the most recent development of the ERPT.
