Abstract

In this study, we have empirically investigated the dynamic spillovers in the connectedness of global economic policy uncertainty and oil market volatility concerning exchange rates in crude oil-importing countries. Our findings reveal that global economic policy uncertainty consistently acts as a net recipient of spillovers, both in the short and long runs. Contrastingly, in the short term, oil market volatility emerges as a significant net transmitter of risk spillovers, with oil price fluctuations exerting a predominant influence on exchange rate volatility in nations reliant on crude oil imports. Remarkably, this relationship undergoes a notable reversal in the long run. In the long run, geopolitical uncertainty takes precedence, establishing itself as the primary net spillover factor, superseding the influence previously exerted by oil price volatility. These empirical insights offer valuable guidance for policymakers in effectively managing external shocks in the context of global economic uncertainties and oil market dynamics.
