This paper theoretically evaluates the dynamic effects of a shift in an exchange rate system from a fixed regime to a basket peg, or to a floating regime, and obtains transition paths for the shift based on a dynamic stochastic general equilibrium model of a small open economy. We apply...

This paper examines the FDI-exchange rate nexus in the context of one FDI source and two host countries. It focuses on … the effect of exchange rates on relative FDI inflows between the two host countries. The theoretical analysis shows … explicitly that relative FDI inflows are a function of relative real exchange rates. In particular, if one host country devalues …
