The real exchange rate is the nominal exchange rate adjusted for relative changes in domestic and foreign price levels. Change in the nominal exchange rate Example S0165。Although the international parity conditions are useful for forecasting longterm trends in nominal exchange rate, they are less helpful in forecasting real exchange rates because real exchange rates are assumed to be constant in the international parity 中假定實際匯率是不變的。因此,它可用于一年以上的匯率預測。s spot rate declines over time. International Fisher relation (Fisher Open hypothesis) Recall the Fisher relation: (1+i) = (1+?)(1+p) If real rates of interest are equal across currencies, from the IRP, then [(1+id)/(1+if)]t = [(1+?d)(1+pd)]t / [(1+?f)(1+pf)]t = [(1+pd)/(1+pf)]t This relation is called the international Fisher relation. International Fisher relation (Fisher Open hypothesis) [(1+id)/(1+if)]t = [(1+pd)/(1+pf)]t Speculators will force this relation to hold on average ? If real rates of interest are equal across countries (?d = ?f ), then interest rate differentials merely reflect inflation differentials ? This relation is unlikely to hold at any point in time, but should hold in the long run IFE的圖示: Which way do you go?

Numerous foreign exchange forecasting services exist, many of which are provided by banks and independent consultants. ? Some multinational firms have their own inhouse forecasting capabilities. ? Predictions can be based on elaborate econometric models, technical analysis of charts and trends, intuition, and a certain measure of gall. Exchange Rate Forecasting A. MarketBased Forecasting Exchange rate forecasts are provide by several of the international parity conditions. ? E[Std/f]=Ftd/f forward parity ? E[Std/f]=S0d/f[(1+id)/(1+if)]t a bination of forward and interest rate parity ? E[Std/f]=S0d/f[(1+pd)/(1+pf)]t relative PPP MarketBased Forecasting ? The beauty of marketbased forecasts is that anyone with access to a financial newspaper can make ! ? Unfortunately,一方面, 它在短期預測上效果差。 the actual spot rate turns out to be S2. The vertical distance between the prediction and the actual spot rate is the forecast error. When the forward rate is termed an “unbiased predictor of the future spot rate,” it means that the forward rate over or underestimates the future spot rate with relatively equal frequency and amount. It therefore “misses the mark” in a regular and orderly manner. The sum of the errors equals zero. Forward Rate as an Unbiased Predictor for Future Spot Rate IRP的圖示: Whi
