Exchange rate unbalances within the Eurozone

Abstract
The current economic unbalances within the Eurozone are being analyzed in this paper. By estimating an exchange rate model, based on fundamental variables in a panel data set from 1988 to 2011, an equilibrium exchange is being calculated. By comparing this with the market exchange rate it is possible to conclude that the southern Europe has overvalued currencies compared to the northern Europe. This confirms previous studies on the subject.
