His observation that the disappearance of intra-European forex transactions by definition will exert a downward influence on the euro's market share initially, is worth stressing. In this respect, Hartmann provides a welcome and needed counterweight to existing overly optimistic forecasts of an increased role of the euro internationally together with an immediate euro appreciation.'

In contrast to much of the existing literature which approaches the subject from a macroeconomic perspective, Philipp Hartmann develops a theoretical model which uses game theory, time series and panel econometrics, and links financial markets analysis with transaction cost economics. The results of Currency Competition and Foreign Exchange Markets are presented with reference to political, historical and institutional considerations, and provide accessible answers to  policy-makers, business people and scholars worldwide. The sections on Spread Estimation and Multiple Vehicles with Inter-Dealer Price and Entry Competition will be of particular use for finance professionals.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eList of figures\u003cbr\u003e List of tables\u003cbr\u003e Preface and acknowledgements\u003cbr\u003e 1.
