Abstract: | Although the importance for successful transition of a monetary policy aiming at a sustainable price level has often been
stressed in the academic literature, there is still ample room for further research into the choice of the exchange-rate system
throughout the different phases of the transition process. This article deals with the question of how the choice of a specific
exchange-rate system affects the economic success of a country in transition and, above all, its gradual integration into
the European Union (EU) and European Monetary Union (EMU). It focuses on the transition process in five South-Eastern European
countries (SEECs).
