The riddle of the euro

Article Abstract:

Multinationals with businesses in 11 European countries have established efficiency in cash management of Europe's new currency and have achieved lower transaction costs.

Companies such as EMC Corp. and Hopkinton, Mass have engineered operations to exploit the Euro currency. EMC Corp. increased profit to $4 billion while Hopkinton saved $250,000 in one year using euro in cash management while others contest euro's transaction fees and weak system settlements.
