  • Purpose: The renminbi (RMB) has appreciated alongside the elevation of China's economic status, leading to increased exchange rate volatility. Moreover, China's medical industry saw a surge in import and export trade volume, with trade related to epidemic prevention and control in the medical sector significantly increasing its share. The medical device trade, in particular, occupies a substantial portion of this trade. Research design, data and methodology: This paper focuses on the import and export value of medical devices in the medical industry as a case study to explore the impact of RMB exchange rate fluctuations on the import and export trade of the medical industry during the pandemic. Additionally, it investigates whether the import and export trade of the medical industry can be a contributing factor to the fluctuations in the RMB exchange rate. Results: Through an empirical study on the import and export values of medical devices in the medical industry over the past three years, as well as the RMB exchange rate, this paper establishes a VAR model and conducts a series of tests including stationarity tests and cointegration tests. Conclusions: The conclusion is that fluctuations in the RMB exchange rate have a long-term impact on China's medical industry's import and export trade.

  • This paper examines the effect of impulsiveness of euro on Indian stock market. In order to examine the problem, we select rupee-euro exchange rates and S&P CNX NIFTY and BSE30 SENSEX to represent stock price. We select euro as it considered as second most widely used currency at the international level after dollar. The data are collected a daily basis over a period of 3-Apr-2007 to 30-Mar-2012. The statistical and time series properties of each and every variable have examined using the conventional unit root such as ADF and PP test. Adopting a generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (GARCH) and exponential GARCH (EGARCH) model, the study suggests a negative relationship between exchange rate and stock prices in India. Even though India is a major trade partner of European Union, the study couldn't find any significant statistical effect of fluctuations in Euro-rupee exchange rates on stock prices. The study also reveals that shocks to exchange rate have symmetric effect on stock prices and exchange rate fluctuations have permanent effects on stock price volatility in India.

  • 본고에서는 무역보험과 환위험이 우리나라의 수출에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 먼저 공적분 검정을 통해 적어도 하나의 공적분 벡터가 존재하는 것을 확인하였고, CCR, DOLS, FMOLS와 같은 공적분 벡터식과 오차수정모형을 추정하였다. 설정된 모형 내 변수들이 수출에 미치는 영향의 방향이 무역보험, 세계경기, 상대가격, 는 양(+)으로, 환위험과 실업률은 음(-)으로 나타났다. 또한 모형1의 오차수정 모형의 경우 단기 불균형에서 균형으로의 조정역할은 세계경기와 상대가격이 하고 있으며, 모형2의 오차수정모형의 경우 단기 불균형에서 균형으로의 조정역할은 환율변동성이 수행하고 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 다음으로 충격반응분석 결과 모형 1과 모형 2에서 무역보험 충격에 대한 수출의 반응은 충격을 받은 시점에서 2개월까지는 상승하고, 이후에는 상승세가 둔화되면서 상승효과가 소멸되는 것으로 나타났다. 모형 2에서 환율변동성 충격에 대한 수출의 반응은 충격을 받은 시점에서 4개월이 되는 시점에서 가장 큰 폭으로 하락하고 빠른 속도로 감소하고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 결과적으로 우리나라의 경우 무역보험은 수출촉진을 위한 무역정책의 역할을 수행하며, 환율변동성 확대는 환위험을 증가시켜 수출을 위축시키는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 무역보험의 정책적 지원이 확대되어야 하며, 외환시장의 다변화와 거래 규모 확대가 필요하다.

  • Purpose - Foreign exchange risk control is in an important component in the international supply chain management. This study shows the importance of the reference period in forecasting future exchange rates with a specific illustration of KIKO currency option contracts, and suggests feasible preventive measures. Research design, data, and methodology - Using monthly Won-Dollar exchange rate data for January 1995~July 2007, I evaluate the statistical characteristics of the exchange rate for two sub-periods; 1) a shorter period after the East Asian financial crisis and 2) a longer period including the financial crisis. The key instrument of analysis is the basic normal distribution theory. Results - The difference in the reference period could lead to an unexpected development in contract implementation and a consequent financial loss. We may avoid foreign exchange loss by using derivatives such as forwards or currency options. Conclusions - We should consider not only level values but also the volatilities of financial variables in making a binding financial contract. Appropriate measures may differ depending on the specific supply chain pattern. We may extend the study with surveys on actual risk measures.

  • The primary purpose of the study is to investigate the volatility spillovers from global economic policy uncertainty and macroeconomic factors to the Islamic stock market returns. The study focuses on the Islamic stock indices of emerging economies including Indonesia, Malaysia, and Turkey. The Macroeconomic factors are industrial production, consumer price index, exchange rate. EGARCH model is employed for investigation of volatility spillovers. The results show that the global economic policy uncertainty has a significant spillover effect only on the returns of Turkish Islamic stock index. Similarly, the shocks in macroeconomic factors have little influence on the volatility of Islamic indices returns. The volatility of Indonesian and the Turkish Islamic stock indices returns is not influenced from the fluctuations in macroeconomic factors. However, there is significant volatility spillover only from industrial production to the returns of Malaysian Islamic index. The results suggest that the Islamic stock markets are less likely to influence from the global economic policies and macroeconomic factors. The stability of Islamic stocks provide opportunity for diversification of portfolios, particularly in stressed market conditions. The major price factors of Islamic markets could be firms' specific factors or investors' behaviors. The findings are helpful for policy makers and investors in formulating policies and portfolios.

  • There are many asset prices which are interlinked and have a bearing on the stock market index. Studies have shown that the interrelationship among these asset prices vary and are inconsistent. The ultimate aim of this study is to examine the dynamic relationship between gold price, oil price, exchange rate and stock index. Monthly time series data has been utilized by the researcher to examine the interrelationship between four variables. The relationship among stock exchange rate index, oil price and gold price have been undertaken using regression and granger causality test. The results indicate that the exchange rate and oil price have an indirect influence on NIFTY; whereas gold price had a direct impact on NIFTY. It is evident from the results that volatility in the price of gold is mainly dependent on the exchange rate and vice versa. All the variables affect NIFTY in some way or the other. However, gold has a direct and vital relationship. From the study findings, it can be concluded that macroeconomic variables like commodity prices and foreign exchange rate, gold and oil, have a strong relationship on the return on securities at the national stock exchange of India.

  • KPSS 검정법과 ADF 검정법을 이용하여 시계열 변수에 대한 단위근 존재유무 검정을 실시한 결과 모든 수준변수는 불안정적이며, 차분변수는 안정적인 것으로 나타났다. 다음으로 EG 공적분 검정과 Johansen 공적분 검정 결과 3개 운임의 검정통계량 모두 공적분 관계가 성립하는 것으로 나타났다. 공적분 검정 결과 모형의 허구적 회귀 가능성이 배제되고, 공적분 벡터가 존재하는 것으로 나타남에 따라 공적분 벡터 추정식과 오차수정모형을 도출하였다. 그 결과 환율의 상승은 운임의 하락을, 주가의 상승은 운임의 상승 초래하는 것으로 나타났다. 운임에 미치는 영향은 환율보다 주가가 더 큰 것으로 분석되었다. 또한 오차항의 계수가 통계적으로 유의하였으며 BDI와 BPI는 매월 11%의 속도로, BCI는 매월 12%의 속도로 장기균형으로 수렴되고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 이어 더불어 충격반응분석 결과 모두 운임은 환율과 주가 충격에 각각 하락과 상승 반응을 보여주었다. 모든 운임은 1개월에 가장 큰 반응을 보였으며, BCI가 환율과 주가 충격에 대해 가장 큰 반응을 보였으며, 지속기간으로는 BDI가 가장 장기적이었다. 또한 GARCH 모형을 통해 도출한 다우존스지수 변동성이 운임에 미치는 영향을 살펴본 결과 주가 변동성 충격에 대한 BPI, BCI, BDI의 반응의 크기가 각각 1개월에서 -0.0227, -0.0210, -0.0183로 나타났다. 또한 수입변동성 충격에 대한 BCI와 BDI의 반응의 크기가 각각 1개월에서 -0.0103과 -0.0001로, BPI의 반응의 크기가 2개월에서 -0.0027로 나타났다. 그리고 누적충격반응 분석 결과 환율이 1달러에 3엔 상승하는 충격과 주가가 400포인트 상승하는 충격에 대해 BCI가 가장 큰 폭으로 반응을 보이는 것으로 분석되었다.

  • Purpose - The purpose of this study is to examine how Korea's macroeconomic factors, such as GDP, CPI, Export, Import, Unemployment rate and USD/KRW exchange rate, are affected by the oil price shocks. Design/methodology/approach - This study used monthly and quarterly time-series data of each variable for the period 1983 to 2022, consisting of two sub-periods, to employ Granger causality test and GARCH method in order to identify the role of the oil price movement in macroeconomic factors in Korea. Findings - Korea's currency rate to the US dollar is negatively correlated with the price change of crude oil while the GDP change is positively correlated with the price change of crude oil with strong relationship between Export and Import in particular. The exchange rate and GDP growth are believed to be not correlated with the oil price change for the pre-GFC period. According to the Granger causality test, the price change in crude oil has a causal impact on CPI, Export and Import while other factors are relatively slightly affected. Transmission effect from the oil price to Export is found and there also exists volatility spillover from oil price to economic variables under examination. Comparing two sub-periods, CPI and Export volatility responds negatively to shocks in the oil price for the pre-GFC period while volatility of CPI and Unemployment reacts positively to the oil price shocks for the post-GFC period. Research implications or Originality - The findings of this study could be helpful for both domestic and international investors to build their portfolio for the risk management since rising WTI price can be interpreted as a result of global economic growth and ensuing increase in the worldwide demand of the crude oil. Consequently, the national output is expected to increase and the currency is also expected to be strong in the long run.

  • Purpose - The oil price affects company value, which is the present value of the expected cash flow, by affecting the discount rate and cash flow. This study examines the nonlinear relationships between oil price and stock price using the AlphaShares Chinese Volatility Index as the threshold. Research design, data, and methodology - Data comprise daily closing values of the Shanghai Stock Exchange Composite Index, Shenzhen Stock Exchange Composite Index, and Hang Seng Index of ChinaWest Texas Intermediate crude oil spot price and AlphaShares Chinese Volatility Index from May 25, 2007 to May 24, 2012. The Threshold Error Correction Model is used. Results - The results demonstrate different relationships between the stock price index and oil price under different investor sentiments; however, the stock price index and oil price could adjust to a long-term equilibrium the long-term causality tests between them were all significant. Conclusions - The relationship between the WTI and HANG SENG Index is more significant than the Shanghai Composites Index and Shenzhen Composite Index, when using the AlphaShares Chinese Volatility Index (ASC-VIX) as the investor sentiment variable and threshold.
