Download or read book Currency Risk Premia in Global Stock Markets written by Shaun K. Roache and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2006-08 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Large fundamental imbalances persist in the global economy, with potential exchange rate implications. This paper assesses whether exchange rate risk is priced across G-7 stock markets. Given the multitude of hedging instruments available, theory suggests that stock market investors should not be compensated for currency risk. However, data covering 33 industry portfolios across seven major stock markets suggest that not only is exchange rate risk priced in many markets, but that it is time-varying and sensitive to currency-specific shocks. With stock market investors typically exhibiting "home bias," this suggests that investors are using equity asset proxies to hedge the exchange rate risks to consumption.

Book Synopsis The World Price of Foreign Exchange Risk by : Bernard Dumas
Download or read book The World Price of Foreign Exchange Risk written by Bernard Dumas and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We consider a world capital market in which the investor population is heterogenous. Investors of different countries differ in the prices of goods at which they consume the income from their investments. In such a setting, the international CAPM incorporates rewards for exchange rate risk, in addition to the traditional reward for market-covariance risk. The aim of the paper is to determine whether these additional risk premia empirically playa significant role in the pricing of securities. The test being conducted is a test of a conditional version of the CAPM. It builds on the recent empirical literature which points out that stock market returns may, to some extent, be predicted on the basis of a number of instrumental variables, such as interest rates and dividend yields. All previous tests of the international CAPM with exchange risk premia have been tests of the unconditional version and have been inconclusive.
Book Synopsis Global Price of Foreign Exchange Risk and the Local Factor by : Francesca Carrieri
Download or read book Global Price of Foreign Exchange Risk and the Local Factor written by Francesca Carrieri and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper provides new evidence on the pricing of exchange risk in global stock markets. We conduct empirical tests in a conditional setting with a multivariate GARCH-in-Mean specification and time-varying prices of risk for the US and nine emerging markets to determine whether exchange risk is priced under alternative model specifications and exchange rate measures. Since inflation rates in emerging markets are high and volatile, we argue that the use of real exchange rates offer a better proxy for risk stemming from purchasing power parity deviations. In addition to using real exchange rates, the empirical model allows for partial integration by including a time-varying price of local risk. Our main results support the hypothesis of significant exchange risk premia related to both emerging and developed markets. The price of exchange risk is also significantly time-varying consistent with previous evidence for major developed markets. The empirical evidence also suggests that there is variation across countries and over time in the relative importance of exchange risk premia. However, currency risk remains an important global risk factor even after accounting for local risk.

Book Synopsis Does Emerging Market Exchange Risk Affect Global Equity Prices? by : Francesca Carrieri
Download or read book Does Emerging Market Exchange Risk Affect Global Equity Prices? written by Francesca Carrieri and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We provide new evidence on the pricing of exchange risk in the global stock markets. We conduct empirical tests in a conditional setting for ten developed markets and twelve emerging markets to determine whether emerging market currency risk affects emerging market equities and if it spills over into developed markets. In addition to using real exchange rates for the risk related to PPP deviations, our empirical model allows currency risk to compete with broader economic and political risks. Our main results support the hypothesis of significant exchange risk premia for both developed and emerging market assets. There is also evidence that emerging market currency risk is priced separately from other emerging market specific risks. Finally, we find that the spillover impact is heightened during crisis episodes and such information in particular affects world and major currency risks.

Book Synopsis Foreign Exchange Risk Premium by : Mr.Lorenzo Giorgianni
Download or read book Foreign Exchange Risk Premium written by Mr.Lorenzo Giorgianni and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1997-04-01 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper challenges the conventional view that foreign exchange risk premiums are small, not volatile, and unrelated to macroeconomic variables. For the Italian lira (1987-94), unconditional risk premiums—constructed using survey data to measure exchange rate expectations—are found to be sizable (relative to the dimension of the forward premium), highly volatile (relative to the variability of the forward bias), and predictable. Estimation of structural models of the risk premium suggests that anticipated fiscal contractions in Italy and lower uncertainty about the future path of fiscal policy are associated with a lower risk premium on lira-denominated assets.
Book Synopsis Local Currency Bond Risk Premia by : Oguzhan Cepni
Download or read book Local Currency Bond Risk Premia written by Oguzhan Cepni and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper investigates the source of variation in emerging market (EM) local currency bond risk premium by employing panel fixed effects regression model. Moreover, we use the methodology of dynamic factor model for large datasets to investigate the possible linkages between excess bond return and economic activity. We provide evidence that macroeconomic and financial variables contain valuable information in explaining local currency bond excess returns. Additionally, we extend our analysis with a panel threshold estimation to investigate how the influence of different factors may vary in different states of the markets depending on the level of global risk appetite. The results show that investors pay more attention to changes in macroeconomic fundamentals when the global risk aversion is high. Also, the influence of exchange rate volatility is more pronounced during the time of market stress. On the other hand, positive credit rating changes decrease the country risk premium which results in lower bond risk premium in tranquil times. Overall, these findings imply that global investors view the local currency debt market as a separate asset class and explore potential diversification benefit from investing in emerging markets by differentiating meaningfully in terms of macroeconomic and financial fundamentals.
Book Synopsis Common Risk Factors in Currency Markets by : Hanno Lustig
Download or read book Common Risk Factors in Currency Markets written by Hanno Lustig and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Currency excess returns are highly predictable, more than stock returns, and about as much as bond returns. In addition, these predicted excess returns are strongly counter-cyclical. The average excess returns on low interest rate currencies are 4.8 percent per annum smaller than those on high interest rate currencies after accounting for transaction costs. We show that a single return-based factor, the return on the highest minus the return on the lowest interest rate currency portfolios, explains the cross-sectional variation in average currency excess returns from low to high interest rate currencies. This evidence suggests currency risk premia are large and time-varying. In a simple affine pricing model, we show that the high-minus-low currency return measures the component of the stochastic discount factor innovations that is common across countries. To match the carry trade returns in the data, low interest rate currencies need to load more on this common innovation when the market price of global risk is high"--National Bureau of Economic Research web site

Book Synopsis Pricing Currency Risk by : Sergio L. Schmukler
Download or read book Pricing Currency Risk written by Sergio L. Schmukler and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hard pegs, such as currency boards, intend to reduce or even eliminate currency risk. This paper investigates the patterns and determinants of the currency risk premium in two currency boards -- Argentina and Hong Kong. Despite the presumed rigidity of currency boards, the currency premium is almost always positive and at times very large. Its term structure is usually upward sloping, but flattens out or even becomes inverted at times of turbulence. Currency premia differ across markets. The forward discount typically exceeds the currency premium derived from interbank rates, particularly during crisis times. The large magnitude of these cross-market differences can be the consequence of unexploited arbitrage opportunities, market segmentation, or other risks embedded in typical measures of currency risk. The premium and its term structure depend on domestic and global factors, related to devaluation expectations and risk perceptions.

Book Synopsis Time-Varying Risk Premia in Foreign Exchange and Equity Markets by : Chu-Sheng Tai
Download or read book Time-Varying Risk Premia in Foreign Exchange and Equity Markets written by Chu-Sheng Tai and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the puzzles in international finance literature is the deviations from Uncovered Interest Parity (UIP). In this paper, I further examine the validity of the risk premia hypothesis in explaining this puzzle by testing a conditional international CAPM (ICAPM) in the absence of Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) using data from both foreign exchange and equity markets in Asia-Pacific countries. When considering foreign exchange markets only, I find that conditional variances are not related to the deviations from UIP in any statistical sense based on an univariate GARCH(1,1)-M model. However, as I consider both foreign exchange and equity markets together and test the conditional ICAPM in the absence of PPP, I can not reject the model based on the J-test by Hansen (Econometrica 50 (1982), 1029-1054), and find significant time-varying market and foreign exchange risk premia presented in the data. This empirical evidence supports the notion of time-varying risk premia in explaining the deviations from UIP. It also supports the idea that the foreign exchange risk is not diversifiable and hence should be priced in both markets.Key Words: International asset pricing, Uncovered interest parity, Time-varying risk premium, GARCH, GMM.
