This paper identifies five factors that can capture 95% of the variance across 39 US dollar exchange rates based on the principal component method. A time-varying parameter factor-augmented vector autoregressive (TVP-FAVAR) model is used to analyze the determinants of movements in these exchange...

We identify five factors that can capture 95% of the variance across 39 United States (US) dollar exchange rates based on the principal component method. We use a time-varying parameter factor-augmented vector autoregressive model to analyze the determinants of movements in these exchange rates,...

This paper examines the performance of monetary policy rules when the economy finds itself in dark corners, when the real sector experiences a sequence of negative shocks from world demand and while the central bank faces prolonged low world interest rates on its foreign-exchange reserve...

We examine whether the renminbi (RMB) is a safe-haven currency in terms of its effectiveness in hedging financial stress for global equity investors. The coskewness of the RMB (the covariance between the RMB premium and equity volatility) is mostly negative, implying that the RMB is not a good...

This paper investigates the effects of monetary and foreign exchange policies on the exchange rate in China. In the empirical model, a multiple number of monetary and foreign exchange policy instruments, such as the short-term interest rate, reserve requirement ratio, lending and borrowing...

This paper analyzes the effects of monetary and foreign exchange policies on the exchange rate in China by using structural VAR models with sign restrictions. In the empirical model, a number of monetary and foreign exchange policy instruments are considered and interactions among these...

Forward exchange rates convey information about the risk premiums of the currency exposures of the investors. The extraction of these risk premiums provides market information for the expected future values of a currency, which may be useful for policymakers in their market surveillance and...
