Abstract
This paper examines the forecasting accuracy of currency futures markets in Canadian Dollars, British Pounds, Japanese Yen, German Marks, and Swiss Francs in predicting the actual spot rates that will exist in the spot market for these currencies. A second objective is to determine if the accuracy of the forecast is related to the time to maturity of the currency futures contract relative to the actual spot rate for that currency. The results indicate that the currency futures market appears to be a reasonably good forecaster of future currency spot rates.
