Importing credibility through exchange rate pegging

Article Abstract:

An analysis of currency stabilization programs reveals that pegging the exchange rate to a low inflation currency allows for effective monitoring. The study reveals that, since inflation rate is somehow uncontrollable, currency stabilizations programs may have little effects to control monetary devaluation in an open economy. Exchange rate pegging may effectively result in the increased credibility of an exchange due to its reference to another currency.
