The ERM was designed to normalize the currency exchange rates between these countries before they were integrated in order to avoid any significant problems with the market finding its bearings. An exchange rate mechanism (ERM) is a way that central banks can influence the relative price of its national currency in forex markets. The ERM allows the central bank to tweak a currency peg in The Exchange Rate Mechanism (ERM) The ERM was a fixed, but adjustable, exchange rate system for the countries of the European Union (EU) that started in 1979.

In surveying theoretical models of exchange rate determination, therefore, it is appropriate to examine the empirical regularities that have been characteris- Nominal Real and Effective Exchange Rates: Nominal Real and Effective Exchange Rates Rates discussed in the earlier slides are nominal exchange rates representing the ratio between the value of two currencies at a particular point of time. The Real Exchange Rate (e r ) is the price adjusted nominal exchange rate. Some economists believe that in most circumstances floating exchange rates are preferable to fixed exchange rates. Floating exchange rates automatically adjust to economic circumstances and allow a country to dampen the impact of shocks and foreign business cycles. This ultimately preempts the possibility of having a balance of payments crisis. For example, Denmark, an EU member country, does not yet use the euro but participates in the Exchange Rate Mechanism (ERM2). Under this system, Denmark sets its central exchange rate to 7.46038 krona per euro and allows fluctuations of the exchange rate within a 2.25 percent band.
