摘要

在本文中，我们使用国际宏观经济/金融框架重新审视独立苏格兰的货币制度选择问题。具体来说，我们考虑了货币选择的主要竞争建议，重点是苏格兰民族党在独立后非正式使用英镑的官方政策。我们的结论是，从宏观经济的角度来看，这种选择不太可能是可信的国际资本市场。至少在独立的过渡期内，自由浮动汇率将是一种可信的选择，并避免与选择固定汇率相关的紧缩。

THE CURRENCY CONUNDRUM FOR AN INDEPENDENT SCOTLAND

Abstract In this paper we revisit the issue of currency regime choice for an independent Scotland using an international macroeconomic/ finance framework. Specifically, we consider the main competing proposals for currency choice with an emphasis on the SNP’s official policy of the informal use of sterling post-independence. We conclude that from a macroeconomic perspective this option is unlikley to be credible to international capital markets. The option that would be credible, and avoids the austerity associated with the choice of a fixed exchange rate option, would be a free float at least during the transition period of independence.
