Discussion Papers from European Stability Mechanism

Abstract: The question of whether the international monetary and financial system is, or should be, moving toward a more ’multipolar’ character has received much attention in recent years. The euro is the second most important global currency, and the euro area’s economic weight lays a solid foundation for its greater role on financial markets. A stronger international role would benefit not only the euro area but also the global financial system. This paper therefore focuses on the main drivers of the euro’s international role and the policies to support it. The ongoing reforms in the European Economic and Monetary Union can support the common currency on the international scene, and there is scope for further policies that strengthen the role of the euro on international capital markets.
