(two days after a deal is struck) Forward Exchange Rates: Forward Exchange Rates:  Exchange rates deals sometimes specify a value date farther away than 2days-- 30days, 90days,180days,or even several years.

15. Currency Options Options: Options:  gives its owner the right to buy or sell a specified amount of foreign currency at a specified price at a specified expiration date

17. Exchange Rate & Asset Returns Rate of return: The percentage increase in value it offers over some period. Rate of return: The percentage increase in value it offers over some period. Invest 100$ to buy a share of stock and the dividend is 1$. Invest 100$ to buy a share of stock and the dividend is 1$. If the price rise to 109 $ or drop to 89 $. If the price rise to 109 $ or drop to 89 $. (109 +1)/100 –1 = 10% (109 +1)/100 –1 = 10% (89 + 1)/100 –1 = – 10% (89 + 1)/100 –1 = – 10% Expected rate of return (P.334) Expected rate of return (P.334)

18. Equilibrium in the FX Market Interest Parity The foreign exchange market is in equilibrium when deposits of all currencies offer the same expected rate of return. 利息平价 : The basic equilibrium condition

Interest parity condition holds again.

23. How changes in E affect expected returns (II) R$R$ Other things equal, depreciation of a country’s currency today lowers the expected domestic currency return on foreign currency deposits. R$R$ Other things equal, appreciation of a country’s currency today raises the expected domestic currency return on foreign currency deposits. > < = R € + (E e $/€ / E $/€ - 1) =

24. How changes in E affect expected returns (III) With fixed E e $/€ and R €, the relation between today’s E $/€ and the expected dollar return on euro deposits defines a download-sloping schedule.

25. How changes in E affect expected returns (IV) Given E e $/€ and R €, an appreciation of the dollar against the euro deposits, measured in terms of dollars, and vice versa.

26. The Equilibrium Exchange Rate R $ = R € + (E e $/€ - E $/€ )/ E $/€ Equilibrium in the FX market is at point 1, where the expected dollar return on dollar and euro deposits are equal.

Conclusion:

28. The Effect of Changing Interest Rates on the Current Exchange Rate All else equal, a rise in the foreign interest rate causes the domestic currency to depreciate against the foreign currency, and vice versa. Interest Rates, Expectations & Equilibrium (II) Conclusion: Rise in R €

29. Interest Rates, Expectations & Equilibrium (III) The Effect of Changing expectations on the Current Exchange Rate Conclusion: All else equal,a rise in the expected future exchange rate causes a rise in the current exchange rate, and vice versa.
