摘      要：Ecuador realized dollarization in early 2000. The major reasons behind this decision include: 1) Its economy was suffering from great uncertainty from external shocks. 2) The banking sector was weak as financial regulation was behind financial liberalization. 3) A banking crisis took place during 1998-1999. 4) Inflation could not be controlled and the exchange rate fluctuated greatly. In implementing dollarization, Ecuador dealt successfully with two problems: lifting the freezing of the time deposits, and adjusting the prices of energy products and wages. Dollarization helped control inflation and has contributed to the revival of the economy. However, it needs to improve productivity and carry out fiscal reforms. Moreover, dollarization has failed to make the economy stronger enough to face the external shocks.
