Abstract

In this paper we suggest that Eurozone countries face a policy trade-off between: (1) a common rule imposing co-movements in fiscal policy; (2) financial stability; and (3) financial integration. We provide empirical evidence documenting the existence of such a trade-off in the period ​characterized by the financial crisis and by the sovereign debt crisis.
