This paper re-examines the UIP relation by estimating first a benchmark linear Cointegrated VAR including the nominal exchange rate and the interest rate differential as well as central bank announcements, and then a Cointegrated Smooth Transition VAR (CVSTAR) model incorporating nonlinearities...

This paper focuses on the cross-dynamics of exchange rate expectations over different time-scales. We use over-the-counter currency options on the euro, Japanese yen, and British pound vis-à-vis the U.S. dollar to extract expected probability density functions of future exchange rates, and...

We develop a new framework to characterize the dynamics of triangular (three-point) arbitrage in electronic foreign … exchange markets. To examine the properties of arbitrage, we propose a wavelet-based regression approach that is robust to … liquidity and market risk indicators to predict arbitrage in a unique ultra-high-frequency exchange rate data set. We find …
