Measuring Exchange Rate
Movements (1)
• An exchange rate measures the value of one
currency in units of another currency.
• When a currency declines in value, it is said to
depreciate. When it increases in value, it is
said to appreciate.
• On the days when some currencies appreciate
while others depreciate against a particular
currency, that currency is said to be “mixed in
trading.”

Foreign Exchange Rate
Determination
• Exchange rate determination is complex.
• Some argue that there are three major schools
of thought (parity conditions, balance of
payments approach, asset market approach)
• These are not competing theories but rather
complementary theories. Without the depth and
breadth of the various approaches combined,
our ability to capture the complexity of the global
market for currencies is lost.

Exchange Rate Determination:
The Theoretical Thread
• The theory of purchasing power parity is a
widely accepted theory of exchange rate
determination:
– PPP is the oldest and most widely followed of the
exchange rate theories, and deals with exchange
rates and inflation. Countries who suffer from high
inflation, will se a deterioration in the value of their
currency
– Most exchange rate determination theories have PPP
elements embedded within their frameworks.
– We will look at PPP in more detail in chapter 8

Exchange Rate Determination:
The Theoretical Thread
• The balance of payments approach is also a
widely utilized theoretical approach in exchange
rate determination:
– The basic approach argues that the equilibrium
exchange rate is found currency flows match up vis a
vis current and financial account activities.
– If a country suffers from prolonged BOP deficits, the
value of its currency will fall

Exchange Rate Determination: The
Theoretical Thread
• The asset market approach argues that
exchange rates are determined by the
supply and demand for a wide variety of
financial assets:
– Shifts in the supply and demand for financial
assets alter exchange rates.
– Changes in monetary and fiscal policy alter
expected returns and perceived relative risks
of financial assets, which in turn alter
exchange rates.

Measuring Exchange Rate
Movements (2)
• The percentage change (% D) in the
value of a foreign currency is
computed as
St – St – 1
St – 1
where St denotes the spot rate at time t.
• A positive % D represents appreciation of the foreign
currency, while a negative % D represents
depreciation.

Exchange Rate Equilibrium (1)
• An exchange rate represents the price of a
currency, which is determined by the
demand for that currency relative to the
supply for that currency.

Exchange Rate Equilibrium (3)
• The liquidity of a currency affects the
sensitivity of the exchange rate to specific
transactions.
• With many willing buyers and sellers, even
large transactions can be easily
accommodated.
• Conversely, illiquid currencies tend to
exhibit more volatile exchange rate
movements.

Exchange Rates (4)
Relative Interest Rates
• A relatively high interest rate may actually
reflect expectations of relatively high
inflation, which may discourage foreign
investment.
• It is thus useful to consider the real interest
rate, which adjusts the nominal interest rate
for inflation.

Interaction of Factors
• The various factors sometimes interact and
simultaneously affect exchange rate
movements.
• For example, an increase in income levels
sometimes causes expectations of higher
interest rates, thus placing opposing pressures
on foreign currency values.

Interaction of Factors
• The sensitivity of an exchange rate to the
factors is dependent on the volume of
international transactions between the two
countries.
Large volume of international trade 
relative inflation rates may be more influential
Large volume of capital flows  interest rate
fluctuations may be more influential

Speculating on
Anticipated Exchange Rates
• Many commercial banks attempt to capitalize on
their forecasts of anticipated exchange rate
movements in the foreign exchange market.
• The potential returns from foreign currency
speculation are high for banks that have large
borrowing capacity.
• The simple strategy is to get out of the currency
about to depreciate and into the currency that is
going to appreciate against it. Then reverse the
positions after the event to end up with more
than you started with.

Norwegian Kroner (NOK)
• Until a few years ago, the operational objective
behind monetary policy in Norway was to
stabilise the exchange rate
• Now, most Central Banks have price stability
as their number one priority.
• The Norwegian Central Bank sets interest
rates so as to reach an inflation rate of 2.5%.
The exchange rate will then have to become
more unstable

What made the NOK
appreciate?
• The NOK appreciated a lot from 2000 until
January 2003.
• Market players have suggested several
explanations as to why this happened:
– The exchange rate was particularly driven by
the interest rate differential. Foreign interest
rates fell while Norwegian remained high

Falling stock markets
• The adverse developments in many major
international stock markets made investors more
risk averse
• Many investors wanted to put their money into
interest paying papers, and NOK was considered
a very good asset due to high interest rates and
sound economic situation
• The NOK exchange rate has been highly
correlated with the US stock market
