We use panel quantile regressions to study extreme (rather than average) movements in the distribution of the real effective exchange rate (REER). Global uncertainty (VIX) and financial conditions (U.S. monetary policy) shocks have a strong impact on the distribution of REER changes, with larger...

We use panel quantile regressions to study extreme (rather than average) movements in the distribution of the real effective exchange rate (REER) of small open economies. We document that global uncertainty (VIX) and global financial conditions (U.S. monetary policy) shocks have a strong impact...
