Overview

Europe's move towards a single currency is one of the biggest and most complex events in financial history.

• The 'ins', the 'outs' and the EMU hopefuls
• European society and the euro
• How businesses will adapt to the euro
• The European Central Bank and policy co-ordination
• The euro's impact on the investment community
• The euro's threat to the dollar
• Risks and benefits of the EMU project.

Editorial Reviews
