The main contributions of this thesis are first, to show that two of the most cited benefits of full dollarization can be called into question in the Ecuadorian economy; and second, making a comparative analysis between dollarized and non dollarized countries, to highlight an advantage of full dollarization: it may to some extent isolate the real economy from financial shocks158 p.application/pdfeng(c) Marí, 2014Països emergentsQüestió monetàriaDòlar nord-americàCanvi exteriorFinances internacionalsBRIC countriesCurrency questionAmerican dollarForeign exchangeInternational financeEssays on the optimal choice of exchange rate regime in emerging countriesinfo:eu-repo/semantics/doctoralThesisB 11950-20142014-05-12info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccesshttp://hdl.handle.net/10803/134132
