<Description: European Monetary Union (EMU) is characterized by low flexibility in labor markets. Hence, for efficient functioning of the monetary union, business cycle synchronization among the members of the monetary union is one of the key mechanisms to offset asymmetric shocks. The goal of our project will therefore be to study the elements of the business cycle synchronization not only among the current member states of the EMU but also the business cycle synchronization of the CEE countries with the current EMU member states.
The primary focus of the research is monetary policy but we will also study how other economic policies can facilitate business cycle synchronization within the monetary union, and business cycle synchronization of a potential member of EMU with the current EMU member states. In particular, we will study various redistribution mechanisms of fiscal policy, and regulatory aspects of industrial policy and labor policy.>

<Partner Sought: We are looking for a coordinator of our project or other eventual partner for research. We have one partner from France and we are in negotiation with an Italian partner. >
