This paper reports new evidence of a time-varying risk premium, and against the usual interpretation of irrationality, in survey data for three major currency markets. Using the cointegrated VAR to better focus on the issue of persistence, the deviations from Uncovered Interest Parity are found...

In this note, I conduct an empirical investigation of the affine stochastic discount factor model proposed by Backus, Foresi and Telmer (2001), who showed that such a model might be able to explain the forward premium anomaly. Evidence presented here suggests that the model can reproduce the...

In this paper, we re-examine the validity of both short and long run monetary models of exchange rate for the case of the Philippines by using new approach called Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) to cointegration. From our analysis, some findings are obtained. First, there are robust short...

By using the asymmetric dynamic conditional correlation model developed by Cappiello et al. (2006), we examine how the time-varying correlations between Greece and other six European countries (Germany, France, UK, Ireland, Italy, and Spain) evolved from January 2007 to March 2011. The main...
