Money and Banking Statistics in Former Soviet Union (FSU) Economies / K. Nahr, Robert DiCalogero, Richard Stillson.

The paper proposes the use of a monetary authorities' account to encompass both the domestic and foreign aspects of ruble currency circulation and a classification scheme for monetary accounts that permits the construction of analytically meaningful monetary aggregates. These issues are addressed within an analytical framework that transforms the Gosbank Accounting System into monetary statistics broadly consistent with the Fund's methodology.
