Overview •

• •

We believe the Caribbean sovereigns and some crises-stricken European nations share various vulnerabilities, such as a large government debt overhang, inflexible exchange rate regimes, fiscal imbalances, persistently large external current account deficits, and structural weaknesses. The comparison of two monetary unions–-EMU and ECCU-–is particularly interesting as we see that both unions share a number of similar structural inefficiencies and policy constraints. Analysis of how various Caribbean and European sovereigns respond to the adverse shocks presents an opportunity to learn about different policy choices, successes and failures. Drawing on European countries’ experiences could help Caribbean region to minimize its future vulnerabilities.
