A re-examination of the link between real exchange rates and real interest rate differentials
Hoffmann, Mathias; MacDonald, Ronald - 2003
The real exchange rate - real interest rate (RERI) relationship is central to most open economy macroeconomic models. However, empirical support for the relationship, especially when cointegrationbased methods are used, is rather weak. In this paper we reinvestigate the RERI relationship using...

Euro-US real exchange rate dynamics : how far can we push general equilibrium models?
Dogan, Aydan - 2014
This paper re-assesses the problem of general equilibrium models in matching the behaviour of real exchange rate. We do so by developing a two country general equilibrium model with non-traded goods, home bias, incomplete markets and partial degrees of pass through as well as nominal rigidities...

Pegxit pressure : evidence from the classical gold standard
Mitchener, Kris; Pina, Gonçalo - 2016
We develop a simple model that highlights the costs and benefits of fixed exchange rates as they relate to trade, and show that negative export-price shocks reduce fiscal revenue and increase the likelihood of an expected currency devaluation. Using a new high-frequency data set on...

Some panel regression estimates of the … relationship between intercountry relative productivity differentials and real exchange rates is presented. Using these estimates … to conduct some calculations, one comes to the conclusion that unless drastic changes to productivity trends occur, there …
