The failure to describe the time series behaviour of most realexchange rates as temporary deviations from fixedlong-term means may be due to time variation of the equilibriathemselves, see Engel (2000). We implement thisidea using an unobserved components model and decompose theobservations on...

In three different ways of lead–lag causal relationship, covariance/correlation and coherence, we apply the wavelets analysis via the Continuous Morlet Wavelet Transform to delineate the significant frequency–time domain lead–lag relationships for the West African Monetary Zone member...

Findings from previous studies indicate that the long-run stationarity of the real exchange rate in different time horizons remains unclear. In order to shed light on this problem, we have adopted a new method which is widely used to analyze signals, the so-called wavelet transformation. This...
