Recently various exchange rate models capturing the dynamics during the transition from an exchange rate arrangement of floating rates into a currency union have been derived. Technically, these stochastic equilibrium models are diffusion processes which have to be estimated by discretely...

Based on a theoretical monetary exchange-rate model in continuous time this paper establishes a sequential estimation framework which is capable of indicating central bank intervention in the run-up to a currency union. Using daily pre-EMU exchange-rate data for the countries of the current euro...
