The noticeable dichotomy between the research and practice of exchange rate exposure management may be partly due to the fact that the degree, the direction and the significance of the exposure to currency risk vastly depend on the method of estimation and the proxies used. In this paper, we...

Many studies have looked in to the determinants of interest rate in developed countries. The objective of this paper is to examine the determinants of interest rates in Sri Lanka. The model employed in the this study is based on the framework developed in Edwards and Khan (1985) and a few...

Generalized autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity (GARCH)-type models have been successively used to capture the conditional volatility of macroeconomic and financial time series in the past two decades. However, few diagnostic tests are specifically devised to check the adequacy of...

In this paper, time-varying market and currency risks among a selected set of developed and emerging economies are compared in terms of stochastic dominance. For this purpose, time-varying exchange rate exposure and market betas are obtained through a multivariate model that explicitly allows...

This paper attempts to identify a process of cumulative reinforcements that sustained pro-growth state orientations and the other participants' motives for collaboration during the post World War II economic development East Asia. The process is elaborated in terms of the five parties who were...

This paper attempts to find evidence for sign asymmetry of exchange rate exposure. An extended classification of the sources of asymmetry has been introduced in place of somewhat incomplete classification suggested by previous studies. In addition, a new measure is suggested in order to estimate...

This paper uses time-varying second moments to investigate exchange rate exposure betas. Using a BEKK-GARCH(1,21)-M model, time-varying exchange rate exposure betas are obtained with explicit focus on the non-orthogonality between exchange rate changes and market returns. We look into certain...

This paper examines the adequacy of the exposure coefficient/beta in measuring the entire impact of exchange rate changes on firms' future operating cash flows. To this end, we investigate the presence of four elements of exchange rate exposure: (a) sensitivity of stock returns to exchange rate...

On the basis that the sources of sign and magnitude asymmetries of exchange rate exposure are largely related to each other, this paper attempts to capture both types of exposure asymmetries in tandem. In addition, the overall impact of incorporating exposure asymmetries on returns is also...

Most studies of exchange rate exposure of stock returns do not address three relevant aspects simultaneously. They are, namely: sensitivity of stock returns to exchange rate changes; sensitivity of volatility of stock returns to volatility of changes in foreign exchange market; and the...
