We test Uncovered Interest Parity (UIP) using LIBOR interest rates for a wide range of maturities. In contrast to other … markets, LIBOR markets have minimal frictions which could lead to rejecting UIP. Using panel unit root test suggested by Palm …, Smeekes, and Urbain (2010) and cointegration techniques by Westerlund (2007), we find that UIP holds for short-term maturities …
