FRITZ, Barbara; BIANCARELLI, André y MUHLICH, Laurissa. Sistemas regionales de pago. Una perspectiva comparativa sobre Europa y el mundo en vías de desarrollo. El trimestre econ [online]. 2014, vol.81, n.324, pp.875-908. ISSN 2448-718X.
The current global financial “non-system” is marked by instability. In the absence of global solutions, a series of regional arrangements of monetary cooperation have been emerging to cope with such instability. This paper focuses on regional payment systems as an initial step of regional monetary cooperation. In order to evaluate their potential contribution to increase macroeconomic stability of the member countries, we develop a typology of payments systems and systematically compare historic and present initiatives in Europe, Asia and Latin America with reference to the original Keynes Plan. We show that regional payment systems entail beneficial effects by reducing transaction costs of intra-regional trade, and by creating incentives for further macroeconomic cooperation. Their contribution to macroeconomic stabilization however depends on the specific design of the respective regional arrangement.
