Explaining the Tunisian Real Exchange: Long Memory versus Structural Breaks
Chaouachi, Slim; Ftiti, Zied; Teulon, Frederic - Institut de Préparation à l'Administration et à la … - 2014
This paper investigates the dilemma of long memory versus a switching regime for the Tunisian real exchange rate (TRER). Empirically, three long memory tests are implemented to examine the long-range dependence in the processes of Tunisian REER. All long memory tests that we used are based on...

Long Memory and Fractional Integration in High Frequency Data on the US Dollar / British Pound Spot Exchange Rate
Caporale, Guglielmo Maria; Gil-Alana, Luis A. - CESifo - 2013
This paper analyses the long-memory properties of a high-frequency financial time series dataset. It focuses on temporal aggregation and other features of the data, and how they might affect the degree of dependence of the series. Fractional integration or I(d) models are estimated with a...

Long memory or structural breaks: Can either explain nonstationary real exchange rates under the current float?
Baum, Christopher F.; Barkoulas, John T.; Caglayan, Mustafa - Department of Economics, Boston College - 1998
This paper considers two potential rationales for the apparent absence of mean reversion in real exchange rates in the post-Bretton Woods era. We allow for (i) fractional integration and (ii) a double mean shift in the real exchange rate process. These methods, applied to CPI-based rates for 17...

Copius Structural Shifts in Exchange Rates of the South African Rand (Post-1994): Do They Matter (for Unit Root Testing)? What are the Most Likely Triggers?
May, Cyril - Economic Research Southern Africa (ERSA) - 2013
There is a theoretical case for real exchange rates to be stationary, but conventional unit root tests generally find nonstationarity in most economic data expressed in nominal terms; exchange rates in particular. Perron (1989) questioned the latter interpretation on the basis that the presence...

Equilibrium exchange rate determination and multiple structural changes
Cerrato, Mario; Kim, Hyunsok; MacDonald, Ronald - In: Journal of Empirical Finance 22 (2013) C, pp. 52-66
The large appreciation and depreciation of the US Dollar in the 1980s stimulated an important debate on the usefulness of unit root tests in the presence of structural breaks. In this paper, we propose a simple model to describe the evolution of the real exchange rate. We then propose a more...
