Abstract

In this paper, we develop an exchange rate target zone model with stochastic intramarginal interventions that generalizes Krugman's standard model. We assume that money supply changes are (negative) proportional to the velocity shocks. The model produces realistic patterns for the relationship among exchange rate, fundamentals and interest rate differentials, which can explain some empirical failures of previous target zone models. The main result derived from the model is that non-linearities in the behavior of both exchange rate and interest rate differential disappear as intramarginal interventions increase.
