Abstract

The purpose in this paper is to analyse the main factors that influence monetary policy in Portugal from 1974 to 1988. The shocks to the Portuguese
economy during the 1974-75 period and the resulting disequilibria of internal and external nature changed the role of economic policy in Portugal. In relation to the period before 1974 economic policy played a more active role. Of particular importance were the monetary and exchange rate policies used as main tools to fight the deep external disequilibria that occurred in the period.
