Machine generated contents note: -- PART I: ISSUES AND CHALLENGES -- Moving towards domestic monetary anchors -- Are financial markets ready in the Mediterranean region? -- Fiscal policy and macroeconomic stability in Mediterranean countries -- Capital account liberalization, exchange rate flexibility, and monetary policy: issues and challenges -- Monetary policy transmission and targeting mechanisms in the MENA region -- Monetary transmission mechanisms: the credit vs. the interest rate channels -- PART II: THE JOURNEY TOWARDS IT -- From Bretton Woods to inflation targeting: financial change and monetary policy evolution in Europe -- Explicit Inflation Targeting in Turkey: the reasons and the outcome -- The evolution of monetary policy in Egypt: Is Egypt now ready for inflation targeting? -- Preparations for the journey towards IT in Tunisia -- Monetary policy and the journey towards inflation targeting in Morocco.

Should Middle and North African (MENA) countries adopt the fashionable modern monetary policy strategy of inflation targeting (IT)? This informed and critical book contains contributions from a�team of international experts, who discuss the preconditions and�consequences of IT.�Particular attention is paid to fiscal policy, capital account liberalisation and monetary transmission mechanisms.� � This book examines the progress by various MENA countries towards IT. Against the background of the paths taken in Europe (and the changes in financial infrastructure which were required), the authors examine how Turkey first came to IT, first informally and then formally, and how IT has worked for Turkey so far. They also consider in turn the varying experiences of Egypt, Morocco and Tunisia, and debate whether, in the light of the global financial crisis, IT is in fact the appropriate strategy to adopt.
