This paper uses fractional integration and cointegration in order to model the DM/dollar and the yen/dollar real exchange rates in terms of both monetary and real factors, more specifically real interest rate and labour productivity differentials. We find that whilst the individual series may be...

Real exchange rates are highly volatile and persistent. I provide a novel structural explanation for these facts using a model with dispersed information among firms. When producers face strategic complementarities in price-setting, uncertainty about competitors' beliefs results in sluggish...

purchasing power parity (PPP). Our model pertains to long run domestic price movements, and shows that economic openness has a … negative relation with QTM and a positive relation with PPP. Cointegration estimations show that the deviation from QTM rises … and that from PPP falls as the economy becomes more open. We also find that QTM and PPP have a strongly negative one …

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...

An explication of the key ideas behind the Cointegrated Vector Autoregression Approach. The CVAR approach is related to Haavelmo's famous quot;Probability Approach in Econometricsquot; (1944). It insists on careful stochastic specification as a necessary groundwork for econometric inference and...

This paper discusses a number of likelihood ratio tests on long-run relations and common trends in the I(2) model and provide new results on the test of overidentifying restrictions on beta xt and the asymptotic variance for the stochastic trends parameters, alpha 1: How to specify deterministic...

The purpose of this study is to investigate the validity of the absolute version of the purchasing power parity (PPP … of PPP we apply the Augmented Dickey-Fuller, DF-GLS and KPSS tests for non-stationarity, and the Johansen procedure for … 77,39 months. Overall, unit root tests show that absolute PPP may hold, but this depends on the country and the selected …
