The exchange-rate effects induced by the introduction of euro cash and that have been presented in the study by Hans-Werner Sinn and Frank Westermann have been empirically supported by Francis Breedon and Francesca Fornasari of Lehmann Brothers. They illustrate that the decline in demand for D-mark currency has a remarkable correlation with the declining value of the euro.
