In order to determine the determinants of foreign exchange rate in Mauritius, a regression model is used using time series data. The Mauritius Exchange Rate Index 2 (MERI2) is used as the dependent variable while inflation rate, interest rate, government debt to GDP, terms of trade and GDP growth rate are used as independent variables in this study.

Currency exchange rates can be categorised as floating, in which case they constantly change based on a number of factors, or they can subsequently be fixed to another currency, where they still float, but they additionally move in conjunction with the currency to which they are pegged. Floating rates are a reflection of market movement, demonstrating the principles of both demand and supply, as well as limit imbalances in the international financial system. Fixed exchange rates are predominantly used by developing countries as they are preferred for their greater stability. They grant further control to central banks to set currency values, and are often used to evade market abuse. (MacEachern, A. 2008; Simmons, P.

This paper aims to compare the Japanese Yen against the US Dollar over a five year period starting from 2005 till 2010. The exchange traded fund for Japanese Yen shall also be discussed in the paper and afterwards an analysis of both the currencies shall be presented. There are different factors that influence the exchange rate differences between any two chosen currencies. The effects produced by these different exchange rates can be of quite different intensity. The most common elements that have an impact on exchange rate difference include economic factors, socio political factors and other behavioral or technical factors also. The macroeconomic factors such as growth of a country, employment rate, gross domestic product etc. All

The performance of a stock market is usually associated with the movements in the exchange rate because of its influence on the stock price of a firm. The foreign exchange market is a place where trading of international currencies occurs between many buyers and sellers around the world. Any fluctuations occur in the currency rate can influence the business activities between two different countries. For example, a strong home currency can leads to the firm’s profit when doing business in the country which have a weak currency rate.

Business dictionary defines an exchange rate as the rate at which one currency can be exchanged for another. In other words, it is the value of another country's currency compared to that of your own. If you are planning a trip to travel abroad this is something that needs to be calculated along the trip, because in order to purchase goods or services while aboard one would need to “purchase” the local currency. Just like the price of any asset, the exchange rate is the price at which you can buy that currency. If you are traveling within Europe, for example, and

An analysis involving the U.S. dollar-euro (USD-EUR) exchange rate involves an in-depth study on the exchange rate between the two currencies. The U.S. dollar-euro exchange rate in the past was the most analyzed subject studied in global economics. However, any results attempted in studying the dollar-euro exchange rate has not been that successful in the past. This is due to researchers not being able to make a connection between the fundamentals of macroeconomics and exchange rates (Molodtsova, Nikolsko-Rzhevskyy, & Papell, 2011). For this purpose, this paper will discuss where the U.S. dollar-euro exchange rate has been in the past, where it is in the present, and where it is expected to be at in the future?

Every country has its own currency, which is a means of payment and allows various types of financial transactions within the country. However, between different countries is also necessary to make any cash payments or transactions. An exchange rate measures the value of one currency against the value

Exchange rates are the important tools in the global economy. The exchange rate activity will affect the price of every country’s imports and exports, as well as the value of every overseas investment. A weak currency makes exports cheaper to foreigners, which can lead to higher exports and job creation in the export sector. Consumers use exchange rates to calculate the cost of goods produced in other countries. How much a currency is worth in relation to another currency is determined by the supply and demand for currencies in the foreign exchange market. Following the global financial crisis of 2008-2009, tensions among countries over exchange rate policies arguably broadened. Some policymakers and analysts have expressed

This paper analyzes the facts behind how developed countries are able to achieve strong currencies through the exchange rate mechanisms as well as fiscal and monetary policies to ensure stability of the currency. It shows how the exchange rate is affected through several factors such as inflation rate, interest rate, current account and etcetera.

What is an exchange rate? Exchange rate is a price for that one country’s currency can be traded for another country’s currency, which involves always two currencies. The price of a currency is determined by the country’s currency’s demand relative to its supply in the market. Furthermore, there are many factors that impact exchange rates but the most influential factors are inflation rates, interest rates, income levels, government controls, and expectations. Due to rapid economic developments and changes and many factors that impact exchange rates, it is hard to determine exchange rates.

The most common exchange rates implemented are the floating, pegged and fixed exchange rate. The pegged exchange rate is implemented through matching your exchange rate to another usually more stable currency such as the euro or the dollar. Whereas a fixed exchange rate is implemented through the government or the central bank. Lastly the floating is set by the FOREX.

Flexible-price monetary model which is the earliest establishment of the modern theory, and exchange rate determination is the most basic model. It represents a valuable addition to exchange rate theory because it explicitly introduces relative money stocks into the picture as determinants of the relative prices which in turn determine the exchange rate. And there is a conventional money demand function given by:

Exchange rate represents the external value of a currency. Changes in exchange rates may affect the relative position of a country in the international trade. Politicians and economists concern about exchange rate variability for lots of reasons, among which that the exchange rate variability discourages trade comes first. However, a large empirical literature on this issue does not confirm a significant effect of exchange rate on the volume of trade [1]. Instead other variables such as employment should be much more important from a practical point of view, for it is closely related to people’s livelihood.

The Foreign Exchange market, also referred to as the "FOREX" or "Forex" or "Retail forex" or "FX" or "Spot FX" or just "Spot" is the largest financial market in the world, with a volume of over $4 trillion a day. If you compare that to the $25 billion a day volume that the New York Stock Exchange

A fixed exchange rate regime will offer an economy greater stability in international prices and therefore encourage trade. Additionally, for developing countries a fixed rate will assist in promoting institutional discipline as the country will adopt restrictive monetary and fiscal policies that foster an anti-inflationary environment. A significant weakness of a fixed rate is that it is subject to destabilizing speculative attacks which could lead to financial meltdowns and devastating economic contractions. A floating exchange rate regime allows central banks to combat macroeconomic factors such as unemployment, inflation, and interest rates without having to worry about the effect on exchange rates. However, developing countries whose economies depend on trade will be reluctant to allow their exchange rates to fluctuate freely.
