Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to present a theory that defi nes the creation of an area that includes many countries, in which there is one, single currency and the countries are characterized by a diversifi ed productivity. That is why the paper shows the importance of labor productivity parity for the creation of an integrating and non-discriminatory currency area and indicates the role of this value in the theory of the exchange rate. Additionally, the paper analyzes the risks arising from joining the eurozone. Methodology: The basic methodology is defi ned by a fundamental analysis of the exchange rate and its relations to labor productivity parity. The author formulates a theory of a currency area that integrates economies with different levels of labor productivity. The methodology is supplemented by calculations and a ranking of countries according to the Q-index. Findings: Listing the member countries and candidate countries of the eurozone according to the labor productivity index has demonstrated that the founding member states are characterized by a Q-index close to 3.30. The countries that are already in the eurozone with an index of less than 2.5 belong to the group where problems are accumulating. Countries that are candidates for the eurozone with an index below 2.0, such as Poland, cannot become member of the eurozone. The principles of creating a currency area can however be modifi ed in such a way that countries with various levels of Q can become members, by developing cooperation that is benefi cial to the socio-economic development. Originality: The labor productivity index Q is a result of elaborating an original concept of the production function that is suitable for the purposes of economic analysis. According to this function the Q-index is equivalent to the category labor share and the variable F corresponds to TFP. The function overcomes the disadvantageous features of econometric models of production identifi ed by Joan Robinson and the obtained results modify the theory of the exchange rate, creating good prospects for general monetary integration.

The Bank of Poland joint stock company was established in 1924 as the central bank of the Second Republic. It was planned to be set up shortly after Poland regained its independence, however, it turned out to be possible only a few years later, after the fiscal and monetary reform. It was not an easy task, only Władysław Grabski’s government managed to do it. A broad-based share subscription was made for the Bank’s shares, as this bank was supposed to operate in the form of an organizational and legal joint stock company. A new monetary unit was introduced, which was given the traditional name “zloty”. The Statute of the Bank of Poland indicated the main objectives of its activity and explicitly defined the structure and functions of the authorities of this bank of whom the key importance should be attributed to the Bank Board.

Bank Polski SA został utworzony w 1924 r. jako bank centralny II RP. Planowano jego utworzenie tuż po odzyskaniu przez Polskę niepodległości, jednak okazało się to możliwe dopiero kilka lat później, po przeprowadzeniu reformy skarbowej i walutowej. Nie było to zadanie łatwe, a udało się dopiero rządowi Władysława Grabskiego. Przeprowadzono szeroko zakrojoną akcję zapisów na akcje Banku Polskiego, jako że bank ten miał działać w formie organizacyjnoprawnej spółki akcyjnej. Wprowadzono też nową jednostkę monetarną, której nadano tradycyjną nazwę „złoty”. Statut Banku Polskiego wskazywał główne cele jego działalności oraz wyraźnie określał strukturę i funkcje władz tego banku, spośród których kluczowe znaczenie należy przypisać Radzie Banku.
