Abstract

This paper presents a stylized exchange rate pass-through model of crude oil price formation for the purpose of understanding the price reactions of OPEC Member Countries to changes in the exchange rate of the US dollar against major currencies and the prices of other Members. Our empirical results suggest that, in response to changes in the exchange rate, exporting countries tend to adjust their prices to secure a stable international purchasing power of oil revenues and to avoid suppressing market demand and losing market share.
