Denmark
Why isn't Denmark in this list? Danish National Bank (Central Bank of Denmark) is the mixture of orthodox Currency board and traditional central bank. Danish banknotes and coins which issued by Danish National Bank is partly backed by their Euro reserve, DNB sets a ratio between local currency and euro at a ratio 7.46038DKK/EUR with a narrow bank at ±2.25%. Denmark is the small and open economy which depends heavily on foreign trade especially with the Europe Union.Cristiano Toàn (talk) 03:40, 16 July 2011 (UTC)
