This paper examines the current state of price convergence amongst the eleven initial EMU member states. Special … attention is given to possible changes in the convergence process during the euro cash changeover. We apply the convergence … kernel-density estimates. We find that convergence took place before 2000, slowed down substantially between 2000 and 2003 …
