Download or read book Do Real Exchange Rates Follow a Random Walk written by Hirao Kojima and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using the pure price inflation rates extracted and estimated by an innovative financial-asset pricing method, we build and estimate univariate time series models of Japanese yen per U.S. dollar real exchange rates. Employing three methods of modeling, we find consistently that the extracted price index-based real exchange rate, r(t), obeys a stationary, mean-reverting process. The mean-reverting behavior detected is consistent with the less restrictive version of absolute purchasing power parity in which a real exchange rate is allowed to temporarily deviate from its mean. Further, the stationarity of r(t) is fundamentally attributable to frequent and sharp changes in expectations reflected in goods prices that are implied by the extracted pure price inflation rates. Finally, an intuitive conjecture is presented that, in the long run, stationary series (r(t)) would be less difficult to predict than nonstationary (random-walk) time series, because of the long-run, mean-reverting behavior of r(t). The conjecture is supported by the out-of-sample forecasting performance comparison between r(t) and the random-walk CPI-based real exchange rate, for three- to six-month forecast horizons. This would reinforce evidence of the stationarity of r(t). A desirable feature of stationary real exchange rate is also presented with regard to equilibrium error.
Download or read book Long run PPP May Not Hold After All written by Charles Engel and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent tests using long data series find evidence in favor of long-run PPP (by rejecting either the null hypothesis of unit roots in real exchange rates or the null of no cointegration between nominal exchange rates and relative prices.) These tests may have reached the wrong conclusion. Monte Carlo experiments using artificial data calibrated to nominal exchange rates and disaggregated data on prices show that tests of long-run PPP have serious size biases. They may fail to detect a sizable and economically significant unit root component. For example, in the baseline case which is calibrated to actual price data, unit roots and cointegration tests with a nominal size of five percent have true sizes that range from .90 to .98 in artificial 100-year long data series, even though the unit root component accounts for 42% of the variance of the real exchange rate in sample. On the other hand, tests of stationarity are shown to have very low power in the same circumstances, so it is quite likely that a researcher would reject a unit root and fail to reject stationarity even when the series embodied a large unit root component.
Download or read book The Real Yen Exchange Rate and Japanese Productivity Growth written by Janet Ceglowski and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study investigates the time-series properties of five real yen exchange rates by testing for stationarity in the context of a single structural shift. It finds that all but one of the series are stationary in conjunction with a trend- or mean-break in the late 1950s or early 1970s. By comparison, most real rates for five other industrialized countries are stationary around a constant mean. These findings suggest that the behavior of the real yen exchange rate is unique among the six currencies in the sample, a difference that may originate in the exceptional productivity performance of the Japanese traded-goods sector.
Download or read book Is the Stationarity of the Yen Real Exchange Rates a Puzzle written by Su Zhou and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper attempts to shed light on the puzzling finding that the results of applying the conventional or nonlinear unit root tests to the yen real exchange rates (RERs) in some recent studies appear to be rather sensitive to whether or not including the data of recent decade in the studies. It is found that this sensitivity of the test results may come from the failure to take into account the large rise and fall in the yen RERs. Using the newly developed unit root tests which account for the presence of multiple smooth temporary breaks in the RERs, the results clearly show that the yen RERs in the post -Bretton Woods period can be characterized as being linear or nonlinear stationary around infrequent smooth temporary mean changes, supporting the validity of PPP.

Download or read book Real Exchange Rate Movements written by Sven-Morten Mentzel and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One aim of this book is to examine the causes of fluctuations in the mark/dollar, pound/dollar, and yen/dollar real exchange rates for the period 1972-1994 with quarterly data to determine appropriate policy recommendations to reduce these movements. A second aim is to investigate whether the three real exchange rates are covariance-stationary or not and to which extent they are covariance-stationary, respectively. These aims are reached by using a two-country overshooting model for real exchange rates with real government expenditure and by applying Johansen's maximum likelihood cointegration procedure and a factor model of Gonzalo and Granger to this model.
Download or read book Real Exchange Rate Fluctuations and the Business Cycle written by Mr.Bankim Chadha and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1996-11-01 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper analyzes the relationship between the real exchange rate and the business cycle in Japan during the floating rate period. A structural vector autoregression is used to identify different types of macroeconomic shocks that determine fluctuations in aggregate output and the real exchange rate. Relative nominal and real demand shocks are found to be the main determinants of variation in real exchange rate changes, while relative output growth is driven primarily by supply shocks. Historical decompositions suggest that the sharp appreciations of the yen in 1993 and 1995 and its subsequent depreciation can be attributed primarily to relative nominal shocks.

Download or read book Structural Models of the Dollar written by Mr.Bankim Chadha and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1990-11-01 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper addresses several questions about the time series processes followed by dollar exchange rates. The stochastic process for exchange rates implied by structural models and the conditions under which they would be described by random walks are examined. Tests on the univariate time series for dollar exchange rates are undertaken to determine if there is evidence for departures from a random walk. Multivariate tests examine whether longer-run movements in the dollar are linked to those in other economic variables, and whether deviations from these long-run relationships contain information for predicting exchange rate movements.
Download or read book Exchange Rate Economics written by Ronald MacDonald and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2007-03-12 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 2007. Exchange Rate Economics: Theories and Evidence is the second edition of Floating Exchange Rates: Theories and Evidence, and builds on the successful content and structure of the previous edition, but has been comprehensively updated and expanded to include additional literature on the determination of both fixed and floating exchange rates. Core topics covered include: • the purchasing power parity hypothesis and the PPP puzzle; • the monetary and portfolio-balance approaches to exchange rates; • the new open economy macroeconomics approach to exchange rates; and • the determination of exchange rates in target zone models and speculative attack models. Exchange Rate Economics: Theories and Evidence also includes extensive discussion of recent econometric work on exchange rates with a particular focus on equilibrium exchange rates and measuring exchange rate misalignment, as well as discussion on the non-fundamentals-based approaches to exchange rate behaviour, such as the market microstructure approach. The book will appeal to academics and postgraduate students with an interest in all aspects of international finance and will also be of interest to practitioners concerned with issues relating to equilibrium exchange rates and the forecastability of currencies in terms of macroeconomic fundamentals.
Download or read book Japanese Effective Exchange Rates and Determinants written by Mr.Jun Nagayasu and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1998-06-01 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper empirically analyzes Japanese long-run exchange rates from several perspectives. Several exchange rate models are considered, including the purchasing power parity, the real interest differential model, and the hybrid models à la Hooper and Morton (1982). A notable feature of the latter models is that the current accounts are introduced as determinants of the exchange rates; one type of hybrid model uses the actual current account, and the other the optimal current account, which is calculated using the present value model suggested by Campbell and Shiller (1988). The paper finds that the long-run specification is sensitive to the specification of the model.

This book was released on 2023-07-25 with total page 1595 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an open access book.With the rapid development of modern economy and Internet technology, the traditional financial industry has to develop Internet finance to provide better services and meet the needs of the times. It is against this background that the blockchain, relying on its special advantages (collective maintenance, reliable databases, and decentralization), provides the reliability to solve the credit risk of Internet finance, has an impact on institutions, trust mechanisms, risk control, etc. in the Internet finance industry, and has derived more new application scenarios, thus paving the way for the development of finance in the Internet era. Applying blockchain technology to the financial field can promote data information sharing, improve value transmission efficiency, and enhance database security. The financial market based on the decentralized system of blockchain technology can reduce the operating costs of financial institutions, improve economic efficiency, and solve problems such as information asymmetry. The new financial business model of "blockchain+finance" is conducive to improving the Internet credit reporting system, preventing and controlling Internet financial risks, and further realizing "financial disintermediation". At present, in China's financial field, blockchain technology has been applied and innovated in supply chain finance, cross-border payment, trade finance, asset securitization and other scenarios. To promote the exchange and development of blockchain, information technology and financial experts and scholars. The 2nd International Academic Conference on Blockchain, Information Technology and Smart Finance (ICBIS 2023) will be held in Hangzhou from February 17 to 19, 2023. This conference mainly focuses on the latest research on "blockchain, information technology and smart finance". This conference brings together experts, scholars, researchers and relevant practitioners in this field from all over the world to share research results, discuss hot issues, and provide participants with cutting-edge scientific and technological information, so that you can timely understand the development trends of the industry and master the latest technologies, broaden research horizons and promote academic progress.
Download or read book Handbook of International Economics written by Ronald Winthrop Jones and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1984 with total page 896 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This Handbook adopts a traditional definition of the subject, and focuses primarily on the explanation of international transactions in goods, services, and assets, and on the main domestic effects of those transactions. The first volume deals with the "real side" of international economics. It is concerned with the explanation of trade and factor flows, with their main effects on goods and factor prices, on the allocation of resources and income distribution and on economic welfare, and also with the effects on national policies designed explicitly to influence trade and factor flows. In other words, it deals chiefly with microeconomic issues and methods. The second volume deals with the "monetary side" of the subject. It is concerned with the balance of payments adjustment process under fixed exchange rates, with exchange rate determination under flexible exchange rates, and with the domestic ramifications of these phenomena. Accordingly, it deals mainly with economic issues, although microeconomic methods are frequently utilized, especially in work on expectations, asset markets, and exchange rate behavior."--Publisher's information
