The results suggest that there is a strong negative relation between domestic credit and EMP in all countries. We also found evidence of positive effect of domestic income on EMP in most of the countries. The paper reveals that EMP in the Czech Republic and Hungary was mostly absorbed by changes of exchange rate while changes in reserves absorbed EMP in Slovakia. The levels of EMP estimated do not pose a significant threat for fulfilment of the exchange rate stability convergence criterion. 2009-06-15 MPRA Paper NonPeerReviewed application/pdf en https://mpra.ub.uni-muenchen.de/15744/1/MPRA_paper_15744.pdf Stavarek, Daniel and Dohnal, Marek (2009): Exchange Market Pressure in Central Europe: An Application of the Girton-Roper Model.
