Abstract:     
The paper examines three possible monetary policy strategies for emerging market countries — hard pegs, monetary targeting and inflation targeting — by conducting case studies of the recent Latin America experience. The track record of monetary policy in these countries provides useful clues as to which of the three strategies might be best suited to conditions in different emerging market countries.
