In this study a regime switching approach is applied to estimate the chartist and fundamentalist (c&f) exchange rate model originally proposed by Frankel and Froot (1986). The c&f model is tested against alternative regime switching specifications applying likelihood ratio tests. Nested...

We show that excess returns to the carry trade can be interpreted as compensation for foreign exchange dealers' capital risk. Given that the top market makers in foreign exchange are at the heart of the market's information aggregation process we also suggest that it is their marginal value of...

In this paper, we re-assess the role of risk premiums in FX survey forecasts. Given that market makers in foreign exchange are both price setters and contributors to surveys such as Consensus Forecasts or FX4Casts we may expect risk premiums of FX liquidity provision to emerge in forecast data...

In this study a regime-switching approach is applied to estimate the chartist and fundamentalist (camp;f) exchange rate model originally proposed by Frankel and Froot (1986). The camp;f model is tested against alternative regime-switching specifications applying likelihood ratio tests. Nested...

The paper analyses the transmission of global financial shocks to individual member states of the European Monetary Union (EMU), in which monetary policy is delegated to the ECB and financial markets are fully integrated. Using a panel VAR model, we show that the asymmetric effects of global...
