Euro currency exchange
Background of the euro currency market
The common market for Europe was established in the mid 1970's to encourage free trade within Europe. Initially there were just a select few European countries that worked together in free trade. The zone has now evolved into the much enlarged European
Union with a headquarters in Brussels.
There is an elected European Parliament that legislates to promote amongst many things the equality of trade between European Union member states. As the benefits of European Union membership have become greater and the prosperity of Europe has increased, then the number of countries wishing to join has also increased.
To make trade in Europe even easier, the European Union introduced the Euro currency on January 1, 1999. Eleven of the countries in the European Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) decided to give up their own currency and adopt the new Euro (EUR) currency: Austria, Belgium, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Portugal, and Spain. The Euro has been taken up by most European states as their currency, and the Euro currency has replaced long established currencies such as the Franc, The Deutsche Mark and Lira.
Benefits
Sharing a common Euro currency means that inter-nation trading is simpler and cheaper because there is no need to change different currencies when trading with most of your neighbours as they will all trade using the Euro currency. You also lessen the risks of fluctuations in currency rates when the trading conditions are volatile. European countries now only have to worry about the Sterling - Euro exchange rate and the Euro - Dollar exchange rate. There are many other considerations when giving up a currency, some economic, some political and some philosophical.
Disadvantages of being outside the euro zone
Companies that aren't in the Euro zone still have to manage their currency strategy when trading with other companies in the Euro zone. The vagaries of exchange rates still apply and for example the sterling- euro exchange rate can have a huge impact on the bottom line. For UK companies it can be argued that life is now easier as they only have to manage the Sterling - Euro exchange rate rather than many other sterling exchange rates. The perceived negative effects of joining the Euro currency are seen as a high price to minimise European exchange rate fluctuations.
The countries that use the Euro currency still have trade outside the Euro zone and still have to manage their currency strategy for the U.S Dollar - Euro exchange rates, the Euro - Australian Dollar exchange rates, the Euro - Canadian Dollar exchange rates, the Euro - South African Rand exchange rates etc. In Global terms the US Dollar is the leading currency and now the Euro is the second most important with the Stirling British Pound third. The British Pound was always second but the amalgamation of many European Currencies into the Euro has meant the Euro is now the second most important world currency. The US Dollar - Sterling or Sterling - Dollar exchange rate was always the most important exchange rate. Now it is the US Dollar - Euro exchange rate or Euro - US Dollar exchange rate that is most important. Nevertheless the British Pound Stirling - Euro or Euro - Stirling British Pound exchange rate is still very important.
