We examine the relationship between trade balance and net export with both, the official and real effective exchange rates on the J-Curve hypothesis and find evidence to support in favor of the hypothesis, coming from a panel data of 49 developing countries from Africa. Countries can improve...

This paper aims to quantify the impact of nominal exchange rate volatility on nominal trade flows with a particular focus on the Czech Republic. The paper shows that the magnitude of the impact differs when a dynamic model is used instead of static model.

This paper studies how real exchange rate movements affect firm export behavior, using monthly data that cover the universe of Chinese export transactions over the period of 2000-2006. Specifically, we examine exchange rate effects on an exporter's extensive (entry, exit, and product churning)...

A large sample of developed and emerging economies is utilized to investigate import pass-through. Panel models reveal that various economic aspects of the destination country can explain about one third of the total variation in pass-through elasticities and the remaining variation comes...

This study examines the effects of changes in the exchange rate of the US dollar on the trade balances of three oil-exporting countries, namely Iran, Venezuela and Saudi Arabia. An exchange rate pass-through model is applied to allow changes in the exchange rate of the dollar to affect prices of...

In this paper we analyze the effects of the real exchange rate volatility on exports in the Baltic region. The study focuses on three countries in the Baltic region, namely, Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania, and uses quarterly exports of these countries to their major trading partners over the...

This paper examines the impact of bilateral real exchange rate volatility on real exports of five emerging East Asian countries among themselves as well as to thirteen industrialised countries. We explicitly recognize the specificity of the exports between the emerging East Asian and...

Devaluation is an integral part of adjustment in many developing countries, particularly relied upon by countries facing large external imbalances. A devaluation can only reduce trade imbalances if it translates to a real devaluation and if trade flows respond to relative prices in a significant...

The existing literature, in both theoretical and empirical viewpoints, indicates that there is no consensus regarding the effects of exchange rate volatility on bilateral trade flows. It can show the different effects across countries and industries. This article examines impact of volatility of...

Despite the strong theoretical foundations of trade models, the empirical evidence in favor of causality between exchange rate and trade is relatively limited. Previous studies that adopt a linear framework typically fail to find evidence in favor of a relationship among the exchange rate,...
