Foreign Currency Futures
The 1heoretical na1ure of risk premiums in roreign currency futures markets is derived and s1udied empirically. Eslimation problems encountered in using futures da1a are discussed. Since forward rates and fu1ures prices have been found to be approximately equal, and because risk premiums in forward markets are highly variable, consistency of the data requires time variation in daily risk premiu...
متن کاملMultiFractality in Foreign Currency Markets
The standard hypothesis concerning the behavior of asset returns states that they follow a random walk in discrete time or a Brownian motion in continuous time. The Brownian motion process is characterized by a quantity, called the Hurst exponent, which is related to some fractal aspects of the process itself. For a standard Brownian motion (sBm) this exponent is equal to 0.5. Several empirical...
متن کاملPricing Foreign Currency and Cross-Currency Options Under GARCH
The main objective of this paper is to propose an alternative valuation framework for pricing foreign currency and cross-currency options, which is capable of accommodating existing empirical regularities. The paper generalizes the GARCH option pricing methodology of Duan (1995) to a two-country setting. Specifically, we assume a bivariate nonlinear GARCH system for the exchange rate and the fo...
متن کاملDebt and Currency Crises—Complements or Substitutes?*
Debt and currency crises are closely interlinked through the government’s intertemporal budget constraint. The default tax and the inflation/devaluation tax can be considered as alternative means of financing. Our empirical analysis finds that high-debt countries choose default rather than inflation/devaluation for financing, while a high money stock reduces the probability of debt crises. Furt...
متن کاملA Reexamination of Fractional Integrating Dynamics in Foreign Currency Markets
This paper reexamines foreign currency markets for evidence of fractional integration, and extends the extant literature in several important dimensions. First, we utilize a new semiparametric wavelet-based estimator, which is far superior to the more prevalent GPH estimator on the basis of mean squared error. Second, we utilize a broader and longer sample, which better facilitates the detectio...
