This study uses the panel probit model to investigate and evaluate the relationship between exchange rate regimes, political stability, and carbon dioxide during currency crises. To understand currency crisis times, we study a panel dataset of seven South Asian nations that contain annual observations from 1996 to 2020. Furthermore, we created the EMPI exchange market pressure indicator to detect crises. Our results strongly suggested that fixed exchange rate is negatively associated with currency crises, with good regulatory quality and better effective governments. Simultaneously, the floating exchange rate is positively related to the currency crises in those countries where the rule of law has less adequately flowed. However, CO₂, exports, and interest rates are buoyantly associated with crises. The floating exchange rate, the rule of law, exports, and interest rate are associated positively and contribute more prone to the crisis episodes. Negatively associated variables contributed less amid crises episodes: fixed exchange rate regime, government effectiveness, and regulatory quality. Meanwhile, CO₂ has a positive relationship with a currency crisis and contributes more likelihood to the probability of a currency crisis. Countries that adopted the fixed exchange rates with effective governments and regulatory quality faced more minor currency crises.

This study is the first to scrutinize how real effective exchange rate, together with the vehicle currency exchange rate, asymmetrically influences the total trade balance between ASEAN (Association of Southeast Asian Nations) and the EU (European Union). This research employs quarterly data between 2000Q1 and 2018Q1, which is derived from several sources. We introduce a method for constructing the double-aggregated real effective exchange rate between ASEAN and the EU that captures the roles of all their currencies. Moreover, we propose the formula to compute vehicle currency exchange rate to assess the importance of vehicle currency in ASEAN-EU trade. Additionally, as asymmetrical impacts of exchange rate on trade balance are well documented by current studies, we employ Nonlinear Autoregressive Distributed Lag (NARDL) model of Shin et al. (2014) to analyze the impacts of currency depreciation as well as appreciation in detail. The findings confirm the prominence of USD as vehicle currency in ASEAN-EU trade. Both depreciation and appreciation of ASEAN's currencies against USD can foster ASEAN's trade balance in the long run. Short-run asymmetrical impacts as well as J-curve effect are found in the vehicle currency models only. The results are robust for the cases of EU-28 and EU-27.

This paper studies the possibility of options as an instrument for central bank to intervene foreign exchange market. As opposed to spot transaction or forward transaction, which impacts spot exchange rate only once, currency options can continuously resist a directional speculative pressure on spot market due to the dynamic delta hedging of OTC currency options market maker. This research also analyzes whether and how central banks can use currency options to lower exchange rate volatility and maintain (implicit) target zones in foreign exchange markets. It argues that short position rather than long position in options will result in market makers dynamically hedging their long option exposure in a stabilizing manner, consistent with the first objective. Selling a "Strangle" allows a central bank to increase the credibility of its commitment to a target zone, and could have a lower expected cost than spot market interventions. However, this strategy also exposes the central bank to an unlimited loss potential. Therefore these kinds of intervention strategies must be used in the short run and temporarily.

환율은 국가 화폐들 간의 교환 비율로 국가 경제 규모 또는 현황을 측정하기 위한 주요 지표 중 하나이다. 환율은 다양한 경제 또는 인문사회 활동에 의하여 영향을 받으며 시간에 따라 유동적으로 변화하는 특성을 가진다. 그러나 너무 많은 경제, 인문사회 활동 요소들이 환율에 영향을 주며 각 요소들의 영향력이 매우 유동적이기 때문에 특정 활동 요소와 환율 변동성과의 관계를 정의하기 어려운 문제가 있다. 이 논문에서는 환율 변동성과 활동 요소들과의 관련성을 살펴보기 위하여 신문 기사와 환율 변동성과의 데이터 패턴 분석을 한다. 일정 기간 동안의 신문 기사에서 단어들의 출현 빈도를 조사하고 환율 변동 폭과 비교한다.

2007-2009년도 글로벌 금융 위기 동안 한국 조선 산업은 급격한 환율 변동으로 인해 커다란 환리스크에 직면하였다. 이러한 환경 하에서 많은 조선 기업들이 환리스크를 관리하기 위해 외환 파생 상품을 널리 도입, 사용하였다. 이러한 맥락 하에서 본 연구는 외환 파생 상품 활용이 해외 수주액에 미치는 영향을 살펴보고자 한다. 특히 자산 및 매출액에 다른 회사의 규모뿐만 아니라 금융 위기 이전과 이후로 구분하여 조선 산업에 미치는 영향을 구체적으로 분석하고자 한다. 본 연구는 한국조선해양플랜트협회(KOSHIPA) 및 한국조선공업협동조합(KOSIC)에서 발표하는 통계자료를 토대로 "t-검정", 분산분석 및 공분산분석을 이용하여 설정된 가설을 검증하였다. 분석의 결과 회사의 규모와 연도에 따라 외환 파생상품에 활용에 유의적인 관계가 있음을 나타내고 있다.

본 연구는 결제통화로서의 위안화 연구의 한계를 극복하기 위하여 한중 통상과정에서 위안화를 결제통화로 확대할 경우 발생할 수 있는 영향력을 몬테카를로 시뮬레이션을 통해 분석하였다. 일차적으로는 현시 환율과 동일한 확률분포로 위안화 환율이 발현되었을 경우 위안화의 사용비율이 한화전환 결제통화수지에 미치는 영향력을 분석하였다. 이와 더불어 위안화 환율이 현시 환율변동성 이상의 비정상성 행보를 보였을 경우의 영향력을 분석하였다. 본 연구로 발견된 주요 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 위안화 활용비율과 무관하게 현시 환율과 동일한 확률분포로 위안화 환율이 발현될 경우, 달러화나 위안화의 환율과 환율변동성의 확대는 한화전환 결제통화수지를 상승시키는 기제로 작용한다. 둘째, 달러화의 환율변동성은 평균적으로는 한화전환 결제통화수지에 미치는 영향력은 긍정적이지만 양극화를 가중시키고, 위안화도 유사한 성향을 보이지만 달러화에 비하여 중도적이다. 셋째, 현시 변동성보다 위안화 환율변동성이 확대된 경우 결제통화로서의 위안화는 한화전환 결제통화수지 규모를 하락시키므로 위안화의 환율 불확실성의 확대여부를 주목해야 한다. 특히 위안화 환율변동성은 한계효과를 보이고 있어 2배수 내에서 변동성의 부정적 효과가 극대화 된다. 마지막으로 위안화 환율변동성과 사용비율이 미치는 영향력은 강세스프레드와 유사한 경향을 보여 기업이 영업이익 극대화를 위한 전략적 도구로 사용될 수 있다.

Despite the dominance of the USD as a vehicle currency in non-US trade, most studies on the exchange rate-trade balance relationship ignore its importance. Some recent J-curve papers have proved that incorporating the role of USD as vehicle currency as a crucial determinant of trade balance can well reflect the reality of global trade and provide more detailed findings. Motivated by this new approach and by the fact that USD is substantially used in the trade between China and the EU and the UK, this paper scrutinizes how the vehicle currency USD and the bilateral exchange rates asymmetrically affect China's trade balance with each EU country and the UK. The results of NARDL estimation indicate that the USD models outperform the bilateral exchange rate (BER) models in terms of detecting significant long-run and short-run coefficients, which confirms the usefulness of the new approach. Also, this paper finds that the USD/CNY exchange rate cannot be neglected in China's trade with the EU and the UK, which can supplement China's policies on international trade and foreign exchange management.

The aim of this paper is to empirically investigate whether and how domestic currency valuation is related to firm-level export competitiveness and profitability by using the unique firm-specific dataset on Bangladeshi nonfinancial firms which have been listed continuously from 2010 to 2018. To achieve the aim of this paper, 63 exporting firms are extracted from a total of 125 firms which have been continuously listed during 2010-2018 and used as the final sample firms. The Pedroni cointegration test reveals that export and import prices of the exporting firms are cointegrated in the short-run as well as long-run. The panel dynamic ordinary least square (DOLS) analysis finds that a firm's export competitiveness is maintained by high import inputs even in the presence of depreciation of Bangladeshi currency against the US dollar. Finally, the DuPont analysis finds that the depreciated Bangladeshi currency enhances an exporter's profitability. Conclusions based on the findings are consistent regardless of exchange rate types, such as, real bilateral exchange rate and nominal or real effective exchange rate indexes. Consequently, the firm-level findings of this investigation suggest that undervalution of home currency is essential for Bangaldesh which is one of the frontier markets in South Asia whose exporting firms are mostly price followers in global markets.
