The aim of this study is to investigate econometrically with the time series analysis whether it is effectively operating of exchange rate channel of monetary transmission in Turkey. In the study, covering the period of 2006:5-2011:5 that the explicit inflation targeting (IT) is implemented,...

This paper analyzes the inter-temporal relationship between currency price changes and their expectations on intra-day frequencies. We examine how price expectations are transmitted into prices by means of order flow and how order flow is affected by past prices (feedback effects). Based on a...

In this paper we test the hypotheses that previous studies fail to find a significant role for currency risk in industry returns because of methodological shortcomings or because of hedging. Using a Fama-French three-factor model augmented with an exchange rate factor in which both the factor...

This paper develops a Bayesian approach to estimating exchange rate target zone models and rational expectations models in general. It also introduces a simultaneous-equation target zone model that incorporates stochastic realignment risk. Using FF/DM and IL/DM exchange rate data, we find that...

This paper proposes a new class of GARCH-jump in mean models to test the presence of time varying risk premia associated with normal and extreme news events. The model allows for a dynamic jump component with autoregressive jump intensity, long-range dependence in volatility dynamics, and...

We study the forecasting of future realized volatility in the stock, bond, and foreign exchange markets, as well as the continuous sample path and jump components of this, from variables in the information set, including implied volatility backed out from option prices. Recent nonparametric...

Using intra-day data, this paper investigates the contribution to the price discovery of Euro and Japanese Yen exchange rates in three foreign exchange markets based on electronic trading systems: the CME GLOBEX regular futures, E-mini futures, and the EBS interdealer spot market. Contrary to...

This paper establishes the link of microstructure and macroeconomic factors with the time-varying conditional correlation of foreign exchange and excess equity returns. By using the proposed DCC model with exogenous variables, capital flows and interest rate differentials are shown to be...

We propose a unified framework for estimating integrated variances and covariances based on simple OLS regressions, allowing for a general market microstructure noise specification. We show that our estimators can outperform, in terms of the root mean squared error criterion, the most recent and...
