  Stability and Growth Pact II: Incentives and Moral Hazard
 
 
Title: Stability and Growth Pact II: Incentives and Moral Hazard
Author: Fourcans, Andre
Warin, Thierry
Appeared in: Journal of economic policy reform
Paging: Volume 10 (2007) nr. 1 pages 51-62
Year: 2007-03
Contents: Adopted in 1997 and implemented in 1999 with the euro, the Stability and Growth Pact (SGP) addresses concerns of budgetary discipline in the Economic and Monetary Union (EMU). After many breaches and the failure of the implementation of fines, Europe amended the SGP on 20 March 2005. In the new institutional design, the preventive element is now tighter, but the dissuasive element is laxer. Using a game theoretical approach emphasizing the notion of moral hazard, we find that the new design does not prevent countries from engaging in moral hazard behaviors and countries will thus be less inclined to abide by the SGP.
