The removal of the lower bound on the EUR/CHF exchange rate in January 2015 provides a unique setting to study the implications of a large and sudden appreciation in an otherwise stable macroeconomic environment. Using transaction-level data on non-durable goods purchases by Swiss consumers, we...

The paper studies exchange rate implications of trend inflation within a two-country New Keynesian (NK) model under … incomplete international financial markets. A NK Phillips curve generalized by trend inflation with a positive long-run mean … implies an expectational difference equation of inflation with higher-order leads of expected inflation. The resulting two …

In this paper, I have investigated the out of sample forecast performance for a case study on the determination of the nominal exchange rate for USD vis-à-vis IN¬R under VEC, VAR (in first difference) and Bayesian VAR specification with the help of set of economic theories. The forecast...
