Abstract: We quantify the effects of fiscal devaluations within a monetary union model with endogenous entry and endogenous tradability. First, permanent unilateral fiscal devaluations have large and permanent positive effects for countries that implement such policies, as they increase hours worked, consumption, GDP, produced and exported varieties. Second, as the model supports large positive cross-country comovements of GDP and consumption through endogenous tradability and the expansion of the trade sector, unilateral fiscal devaluations also have positive effects on neighbors. We identify positive spillovers to other members of the monetary union in terms of economic activity and in terms of welfare. Both results suggest that permanent fiscal devaluations are an efficient and non-aggressive policy option for governments that belong to a monetary union. The timing of reforms and their potential preannouncements also crucially matter for the resulting short term dynamics and welfare gains, but are neutral in the long term.
