Real Exchange Rates and Real Interest Rate Parity: The Case of China
Abstract This paper empirically examines the likelihood of any long-run relationship between real exchange rate and real interest rate (RERI) differentials in China using vector autoregressive model (VAR) and hybrid cointegration methodology. The preliminary results based on some limited monthly data are indicative of a rather weak long run relationship. However, the empirical investigation als...
متن کاملTesting Uncovered Interest Rate Parity Using LIBOR
We test Uncovered Interest Parity (UIP) using LIBOR interest rates for a wide range of maturities. In contrast to other markets, LIBOR markets have minimal frictions which could lead to rejecting UIP. Using panel unit root test suggested by Palm, Smeekes, and Urbain (2010) and cointegration techniques by Westerlund (2007), we find that UIP holds for shortterm maturities, when market-specific he...

Its failure to hold would suggest 1) that markets are inefficient in the sense that traders do not take advantage of known profit opportunities, 2) that legal restri...
متن کاملFin de Siècle real interest parity
We evaluate the recent evidence for real interest parity (RIP), focusing on long-term yields. Examining the data on financial instruments of various maturities across the G-7 countries, we find substantial differences in the degree of real interest equalization measured at different horizons. In general, RIP holds better at long horizons than at short. This empirical result is robust to alterna...
