Abstract
This study tries to take a new look at the exchange rate determination model by employing recent developments in time series estimation methodologies. For this purpose, the validity of the sticky price monetary exchange rate model has been searched for the Turkish lira / US dollar case. Estimation results considering both linear and non–linear modeling approaches highly support the theoretical foundations and reveal explicitly the asymmetric nature of the model. The paper infers that since the nominal exchange rate seems to be determined through the economic fundamentals, it should not be used as a policy tool with a long–term perspective.
期刊介绍:
The intent of the editors is to consolidate Emerging Markets Review as the premier vehicle for publishing high impact empirical and theoretical studies in emerging markets finance. Preference will be given to comparative studies that take global and regional perspectives, detailed single country studies that address critical policy issues and have significant global and regional implications, and papers that address the interactions of national and international financial architecture. We especially welcome papers that take institutional as well as financial perspectives.
