Since that period the amount of capital ready to exploit any opportunity in foreign exchange markets has multiplied, which would make any comparable situation today much more dangerous. Indeed, the crisis of the early 1990’s put the status quo within the EU common market at risk.
1992和1993年见证了欧洲汇率机制的巨大危机。自从那个时期以来，虎视眈眈准备利用外汇市场机会的资本量成倍地增加，如果今天出现当时类似的危机，这些资金会让情况更加危急。1990年代初的危机确实把欧盟共同市场的现状推到了危险的境地。很难相信，以目前的巨大的流动资本量，这一单边市场还能度过一系列的巨大并突发的汇率变化。
