EXCHANGE RATES AND STOCK MARKET DYNAMICS: ISLAMIC VERSUS CONVENTIONAL FINANCIAL SYSTEMS

This study investigates the changes and persistence in dynamic connectedness between stock market performance and exchange rate fluctuations, comparing conventional and Islamic financial systems. With an eye on a global financial landscape characterized by the integration of capital markets and the adoption of floating exchange rate regimes, it examines the effects of exchange rate variations on the dynamics of the stock market in nine different countries - the United Kingdom, Australia, Japan, Singapore, Canada, China, India, Korea, and South Africa. The study employs daily data spanning from November 2015 to July 2023 and uses a comprehensive analysis of three-step methodology, including nonparametric causality-in-quantiles tests, asymmetric slope Conditional Autoregressive Valueat-Risk (CAViaR), and Time-Varying Parameter Vector Autoregressive (TVP-VAR) Connectedness measure. Our results underline the asymmetric impact of exchange rate fluctuations on stock markets and highlights the distinctive characteristics of Islamic financial markets. Comparing Islamic and conventional stock markets in the context of exchange rate fluctuations, this study not only serves to fill a gap in the existing literature but also emphasizes the significance of currency exchange rate swings for global investors, policymakers, and practitioners trying to understand the intricacies of global financial markets.

Pegged exchange rate regime and its impact on inflation in BRICS nations: Country-wise evidence

During the 1990s and 2000s, many developing nations accepted fixed exchange rate regimes to sustain price stability. By pegging their currencies to an anchor currency (i.e. US dollar), developing countries could bring credibility and confidence into their economies. The study tries to analyse the impact of the pegged exchange rate regime on inflation in BRICS countries for the period spanning from 2003 to 2022. The result points to the loss of monetary policy autonomy due to the ‘impossible trinity’ coming into play with a steady increase in capital inflows. The country’s large trade surpluses and extensive trade relationships may buffer the impact of exchange rate fluctuations on domestic prices, as changes in the exchange rate may be absorbed by changes in trade volumes or pricing strategies. Other factors like demographic trends or government interventions in markets could overshadow the influence of the exchange rate regime on inflation. The impact of changes in the exchange rate regimes on inflation may operate with lags, meaning that any effects may not be immediately observable in the data. The analysis in this study proposes that exchange rate regimes choice and money supply influence the inflation dynamics in the BRICS countries. It merely reflects the success of the central bank in neutralizing its very effort of maintaining the pegged rate, which gives rise to inflationary growth of the money supply.

Comparison of Nonparametric Regression Nadara - Watson Estimator Kernel Function And Local Polynomial Regression In Predicting USD Against IDR

Introduction: Macroeconomic problems such as inflation and exchange rates are often highlighted as benchmarks for achieving economic progress. The stability of both must be monitored by the government in order to control the inflation rate and exchange rate. This instability is a phenomenon of fluctuation, namely the phenomenon of the rise and fall of the exchange rate of a currency based on demand and supply. Given the large impact of exchange rate fluctuations on the economy, the prediction of the wage exchange rate against the US dollar is considered necessary because it is useful to anticipate and minimize bad possibilities that arise. Method: Methods that can be used to analyze fluctuating currency exchange rate data are nonparametric regression, Nadaraya-Watson estimator, Gaussian kernel function, and Local Polynomial Regression. Results and Discussion: The results of a nonparametric regression comparison between the Nadaraya-Watson estimator, Gaussian kernel function, and local polynomial regression were obtained by MAPE of 2.508% and 0.179%, respectively. This shows that the best model uses the local polynomial regression method and predicted USD exchange rate data against IDR using the best model, namely Local polynomial Regression where the MAPE value is less than 10%, which means the prediction rate is very good. Conclusion: The nonparametric regression method of the Nadaraya-Watrson estimator, Gaussian kernel function, and local polynomial regression shows that the best model uses the local polynomial regression method.

EXCHANGE RATE VOLATILITY OF UKRAINE’S MAIN TRADING PARTNERS

Ukraine, as an open economy under conditions of Russian aggression, is highly vulnerable to the import of exogenous shocks. This is embodied in exchange rate volatility and the emergence of corresponding risks. Most studies are aimed at direct, explicit, or transactional risks. They reflect the negative impact of exchange rate fluctuations on economic entities' cash flows in foreign economic activities. However, changes in currency prices can also affect the subjects oriented to the local market and not carry out operations in foreign currencies by changing competitiveness. One speaks about the indirect, implicit, or economic currency risk in this case. The latter generally arises in the event of volatility in the exchange rates of currencies of importing countries or competitors. The study is devoted to the analysis of indirect currency risks, which reflect potential adaptations of competitiveness due to changes in exchange rates. For this purpose, the currencies of the countries that account for about 80% of Ukraine's trade turnover over the last 10 years, namely the euro, Japanese yen, British pound, Swiss franc, yuan, Indian rupee, Czech krona, Polish zloty, Hungarian forint, and Turkish lira were chosen. The article aims to assess the volatility of exchange rates of Ukraine's main trading partners as a stage of analyzing economic currency risks. The paper uses statistical methods for volatility estimation and distribution characteristics, namely standard deviation, skewness, and kurtosis. The obtained results show that some currencies have a high level of asymmetry and excess, indicating possible unpredictable rate changes. The calculated indicators' generalization allows identifying currencies with relatively high and low risk. The article complements the results of previous studies, as it covers both major reserve currencies and currencies of leading countries whose markets are developing globally and in Europe. Estimates of asymmetry and excess exchange rate distributions are essential for effective currency risk management.

How does exchange rate fluctuation affect the efficiency of Chinese enterprises' overseas mergers and acquisitions

With the changes in the global trade environment, the impact of exchange rate on cross-border mergers and acquisitions (M&A) of enterprises cannot be ignored. Taking Chinese listed enterprises as the research sample, we establish a model of the impact of exchange rate fluctuations on the efficiency of overseas mergers and acquisitions. The findings are as follows: (1) Exchange rate fluctuation significantly affects the completion rate of M&A. (2) Exchange rate fluctuations play an important role in shortening the time of overseas M&A. (3) Exchange rate volatility significantly affects M&A efficiency in high-income countries and highly competitive industries.

Sensitivity of bilateral trade between Korea and China to exchange rate fluctuations: Insights from the semiconductor industry

AbstractThis study delves into the impact of exchange rate fluctuations on the bilateral semiconductor trade between Korea and China. We present compelling evidence emphasising the significant role of exchange rate changes in Korea's semiconductor trade with China, affecting both short‐term and long‐term dynamics. Our analysis also reveals an asymmetrical effect of bilateral exchange rates on Korea's semiconductor trade with China. Specifically, we find that exchange rate asymmetries primarily manifest as a long‐term phenomenon in Korea's semiconductor exports to China. At the same time, they influence both short‐ and long‐term dynamics in Korea's semiconductor imports from China.

Impact of Exchange Rate Fluctuation on the Standard of Living in Nigeria

The study examined the effect of the exchange rate fluctuations on standard of living in Nigeria. The variables of gross domestic product per capita (GDPPC), per capital income and unemployment proxied standard of living while the explanatory variables were exchange rate (EXCR), Inflation (INF) Interest rate (INTR) and money supply secondary data was used covering between the period of 1990-2023. Unit root test were carried out to ascertain the stationarity of the variables the result of which Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) was used to estimate the parameters as they were integrated in the order of 0 and 1. The findings reveal that Exchange rate fluctuation has a significant long and short run relationship with the gross domestic product (GDP) per capita, per capita income and unemployment rate in Nigeria. The implication of this is that living standard in Nigeria is greatly influenced by the alterations in exchange rate. As such the study recommended amongst other things that Government should improve on the productive sector of the economy as the primary sector of the economy that produces the basic commodities used to produce goods and services thereby reducing unemployment and improving standard of living. They should strive to put in place positive economic reforms tailored towards enhancing the economic performance and reducing unfavorable impact of exchange rate fluctuations on the standard of living in Nigeria.

EFFECT OF EXCHANGE RATE MOVEMENT ON THE NEXUS BETWEEN PUBLIC- PRIVATE INVESTMENT AND ECONOMIC GROWTH IN NIGERIA

This paper investigated the effect that exchange rate fluctuations can engender upon the linkage between public- private and economic growth. Data on public investment (Gross Fixed Capital Formation-Public) and private investment (Gross Fixed Capital Formation- Private) along with the exchange rate were sourced from World Development Indicators (WDI) 2020. The study adopted the Auto Regressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model for its estimation techniques. The result shows no significant impact of exchange rate fluctuations on both the private and public investment for the study period in the long and short runs. However, the public investment has a negative and statistically significant relationship with economic growth in the long run as well as in the short run. The Federal Government of Nigeria is advised to increase infrastructural investments as a means of correcting the negative trend and come out with far reaching reforms on institutional corruption

Effects of Exchange Rate Variations on Imports and Exports: A Case Study of Pakistan

This study examines the impact of exchange rate fluctuation on Pakistan's exports and imports throughout 2000 to 2019. The current study uses a non-probabilistic approach for the sample selection. Descriptive statistics are used in order to assess the data based on mean, medium, and standard deviation; however, regression analysis is used to analyze the relationship between variables. The purpose of this study is to investigate whether trade flows are influenced by exchange rate volatility symmetrically or asymmetrically, as the exchange rate variations have shown an empathic impact on the economies of developing nations in the past years. The existing study investigates the effect of currency fluctuation in the context of Pakistan. It is generally recommended that policymakers in Pakistan consider the existence and degree of exchange rate volatility as well as the predicted impact of this volatility on specific macroeconomic variables when implementing trade strategies. This will allow for increased trade and foreign direct investment potential. The results of the study show that there is a substantial correlation between exports and exchange rates, with a t-statistics value of 2.01 for the independent variable of currency rates. We find that the exchange rate significantly affects the exports and imports of Pakistan. As the results show, currency fluctuation does affect the imports and exports, so automatically, the economic growth of the country is concerned. Inflation and interest rates are taken as control variables in the existing article.

Bilateral trade of Turkey-US: Can euro explain this relationship?

This study applies Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) cointegration method to study the impact of exchange rate fluctuations on Turkey-US trade, considering the third country effect. We estimated bilateral exports and imports of 10 industries between Turkey and the US, collected trade data between Turkey and the US and related exchange rate fluctuation indicators, and established economic models. The results show a two-way interaction effect of exchange rate fluctuations on bilateral trade. At the same time, we find that the third-country effect plays a vital role in Turkey-US trade, and changes in demand and supply from other countries indirectly impact bilateral trade. This study helps to understand the complexity and volatility of trade between Turkey and the US and provides reference for relevant economic policies. These insights help not only address challenges posed by exchange rate fluctuations and third-country effects but also promote stable and sustainable bilateral trade in an evolving global economy.

Evaluating Impact of Exchange Rate Fluctuation and Political Instability on Inflation: A Fresh Insight from Pakistan

Research on the Influence Mechanism of RMB Exchange Rate Change on Commodity Prices

With the deepening of economic globalization and the gradual integration of domestic and foreign markets, the impact of a country's price level on the international market is becoming more and more obvious. When the external market factors change, it will easily affect the price level of a country, and then affect the economic development of a country. The rapid economic globalization and China's continuous reform and opening up have made the factors affecting China's price fluctuation more complicated. China is the largest consumer and importer in the world commodity market. The change of RMB exchange rate will not only affect the international competitiveness of China's commodities, but also greatly affect the actual interests of China's importers and exporters and their trading partners. The influence of external factors on domestic prices should not be underestimated. Only by clarifying the factors that affect this effect can we implement appropriate monetary policies accordingly to reduce the impact of exchange rate fluctuations on the domestic economy. This paper analyzes the influence mechanism of RMB exchange rate changes on commodity prices, and then provides countermeasures and suggestions for the monitoring and early warning mechanism of RMB internationalization and commodity price fluctuations.
