CONCLUSIONS""; ""References"" 330 3 $aThis paper proposes a template for assessing whether or not a country's economic and financial characteristics make it an appropriate candidate for a pegged exchange rate regime. The template employs quantifiable measures of attributes-trade orientation, financial integration, economic diversification, macroeconomic stabilization, credibility, and "fear-offloating" type effects-that have been identified in the literature as key potential determinants of regime choice. To illustrate, the template is applied to Kazakhstan and Pakistan. The results indicate a fairly strong case against a pegged regime in Pakistan. The implications for Kazakhstan are mixed, although changes in that economy in recent years strengthen the case against a peg. 410 0$aIMF Working Papers; Working Paper ;$vNo. 2006/054 606 $aForeign exchange rates 606 $aForeign exchange administration 606 $aCurrencies$2imf 606 $aCurrency$2imf 606 $aDeflation$2imf 606 $aExchange rate adjustments$2imf 606 $aExchange rate flexibility$2imf 606 $aExchange rates$2imf 606 $aForeign Exchange$2imf 606 $aForeign exchange$2imf 606 $aGovernment and the Monetary System$2imf 606 $aInflation$2imf 606 $aMacroeconomics$2imf 606 $aMonetary economics$2imf 606 $aMonetary Systems$2imf 606 $aMoney and Monetary Policy$2imf 606 $aMoney$2imf 606 $aPayment Systems$2imf 606 $aPrice Level$2imf 606 $aPrices$2imf 606 $aRegimes$2imf 606 $aStandards$2imf 607 $aPakistan$2imf 615 0$aForeign exchange rates. 615 0$aForeign exchange administration. 615 7$aCurrencies 615 7$aCurrency 615 7$aDeflation 615 7$aExchange rate adjustments 615 7$aExchange rate flexibility 615 7$aExchange rates 615 7$aForeign Exchange 615 7$aForeign exchange 615 7$aGovernment and the Monetary System 615 7$aInflation 615 7$aMacroeconomics 615 7$aMonetary economics 615 7$aMonetary Systems 615 7$aMoney and Monetary Policy 615 7$aMoney 615 7$aPayment Systems 615 7$aPrice Level 615 7$aPrices 615 7$aRegimes 615 7$aStandards 700 $aHusain$b Aasim$01815611 801 0$bDcWaIMF 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910968753303321 996 $aTo Peg or Not to Peg$94372832 997 $aUNINA
