We identify variables that help explain the persistent weakness of the Norwegian krone since 2016 within a fully simultaneous model of the underlying process driving the krone-euro exchange rate. In addition to a set of fundamental variables we consider non-traditional explanatory variables...

Este trabajo realiza un contraste de causalidad entre el tipo de cambio dólar estadounidense-euro y el diferencial de rendimiento de los bonos entre Estados Unidos y la Zona Euro. Para ello, se aplica el procedimiento secuencial de Hsiao (1981) a datos diarios para el período 1999-2011....

This paper test for causality between the US Dollar-Euro exchange rate and US-EMU bond yield differentials. To that end, we apply Hsiao (1981)’s sequential procedure to daily data covering the 1999-2011 period. Our results suggest the existence of statistically significant Granger causality...

This paper examines the causality between the exchange rates and stock prices in the Middle East and North Africa Region before and after Asian financial crisis. Applying a non-causality testing procedure developed by Toda and Yamamoto (1995), we empirically find that there is a unidirectional...

This paper analyzes and compares range-based and return-based variance/covariance estimates. We provide new results on the relative efficiency of the range. We show that the use of the range is compatible with time varying volatilities and we extend the range to a multivariate setup. A new...

The aim of this study is to investigate the relationships between the stock exchange, gold, and foreign exchange returns in Turkey. The monthly data of the Istanbul Stock Exchange (ISE), foreign exchange and gold prices for the period 1990-2010, are used for the analysis by means of the dynamic...

This paper empirically analyses the evidence of intra-spillovers and inter-spillovers between foreign exchange and stock markets in the seven economies which concentrate the majority of foreign exchange transactions (i.e. United Kingdom, Euro area, Australia, Swiss, Canada, United Kingdom and...

In this study we examine the role of the Euro on currency co-movements and contagion considering six major currencies (i.e., EUR(DM), JPY, GBP, CHF, AUD, as well as, CAD) and their corresponding USD exchange rates. The period of study extends from January 2, 1975 to April 8, 2016. The selected...
