The main objective of this paper is to analyse the inflationary impact of exchange rate depreciation in South Africa over the period 1984-1998 when the monetary authorities adopted a more market-oriented exchange rate system. Although the empirical part of the paper extensively focuses on this...

In this work, assuming as a model the Multifractional Processes with Random Exponent (MPRE), we propose a simulation algorithm able to replicate financial time series, specifically pertaining to the FX market. We show how, properly choosing the functional parameter of the MPRE, the simulated...

In order to examine the new RMB exchange rate regime rigorously, we employ the STARTZ model to investigate the behavior of RMB NEER from mid-2006 to mid-2008. We find that a managed float with a target central parity and without an explicit band best describes the daily movement of the exchange...

The present paper aims to analyze impacts of financial policy on the foreign currencies exchange rates. The study utilizes time series data analyses in order to reach better econometric model that may reflect the relationship between financial policy and foreign exchange rates in Sudan between...

We examine the Exchange Rate Volatility (ERV) response to the Economic Policy Uncertainty (EPU) shocks from a panel VAR perspective used for the first time in this context. Focusing on Emerging Market Economies (EME), our noteworthy findings postulate that (a) both home and foreign EPU shocks...

A conditional variance analysis is applied to study the exchange rate of the Czech crown. The crown is pegged to a currency basket with an imposed narrow band. The central bank's consistent policy enables the semi-fixed exchange rates to behave similarly to free ones. Their movements exhibit...

Most intervention studies have been silent on the assumed structure of the economic system - implicitly imposing implausible assumptions - despite the fact that inference depends crucially on such issues. This paper proposes to identify the cross-effects of intervention with the level and...
