We examine the ability of existing and new factor models to explain the comovements of G10- currency changes, measured using the novel concept of “currency baskets”, representing the overall movement of a particular currency. Using a clustering technique, we find a clear two-block structure...

We examine the ability of existing and new factor models to explain the comovements of G10-currency changes, measured using “currency baskets.” A clustering technique reveals a clear two-block structure in currency comovements with the first block containing mostly the dollar currencies, and...

According to Verdelhan (2018), sorting countries by their dollar currency betas creates a monotonic cross-section with a highly significant spread. The slope factor, which is long in high beta currencies and short in low beta currencies, explains this cross section and is also an important...
