Abstract
In the economics literature on exchange rate determination no theory has yet been found that performs well in out-of-sample prediction experiments. Until today the simple random walk model has never been significantly outperformed. We have identified a set of fundamental long-run exchange rate models from literature that are well-known among economists. This paper investigates whether a neural network representation of these structural exchange rate models improves the out-of-sample prediction performance of the linear versions. Empirical results are reported in the case of the US dollar-Deutsche Mark exchange rate.
