A practice that has become widespread is that of comparing forecasts of financial return variability obtained from discrete time models against high frequency estimates based on continuous time theory. In explanatory financial return variability modelling this raises several methodological and...

Wir untersuchen für ein internationales Unternehmen das Zusammenwirken von finanz- und realwirtschaftlichem Risikomanagement. Dies geschieht auf der Grundlage eines intertemporalen, stochastischen Entscheidungsmodells. Die gemeinsame Betrachtung von Devisen-Futures und Lagerhaltung bestätigt...

A practice that has become widespread and widely endorsed is that of evaluating forecasts of financial variability obtained from discrete time models by comparing them with high-frequency ex post estimates (e.g. realised volatility) based on continuous time theory. In explanatory financial...

The relationship between recessions and productivity has been the focus of an important body of theoretical and empirical research in the last two decades. We contribute to this literature by presenting new evidence on the evolution of productivity in the aftermath of recessions. Our method...

Standard economic models hold that exchange rates are influenced by fundamental variables such as relative money supplies, outputs, inflation rates and interest rates. Nonetheless, it has been well documented that such variables little help predict changes in floating exchange rates u0097 that...

Since the 1970s much work has been done attempting to provide empirical support for some models that offered a linear explanation for the exchange rate dynamic of a country, including that of Dornbusch. So far none have been conclusive and the random walk is considered the best model to which it...

We introduce a forecasting method that closely matches the econometric properties required by the theory of exchange rate prediction. Our approach formally models (i) when (and if) predictor variables enter or leave a regression model, (ii) the degree of parameter instability, (iii) the...

Market microstructure and the imperfect common knowledge literature in macroeconomics both analyze the effect of dispersed information on prices. This paper draws on both sources to understand exchange rate forecasting errors. A theoretical model is developed showing that forecasting errors...

This paper is first to establish profound evidence on the existence of a low-risk anomaly in currency markets. In particular, I discover a novel strategy in currency forward markets that is long in currencies whose higher return moments are low relative to past levels and short in currencies...

This paper evaluates the performance of carry trade strategies with macro fundamentals in a Markov switching dynamic factor augmented regression framework and compares the performance statistics with the benchmark model of a random walk and momentum strategy. I make simulations with the Japanese...
