Abstract

Here we investigate the relationship between export commodity prices and AUD/USD exchange rate fluctuation using time varying parameter model. Using monthly data for over 30 years we found that exchange rate is determined by commodity prices and Australian base metal indices is highly correlated with country’s exchange rate. We have considered linear Gaussian state space model where common variance is treated as a stochastic time varying variable which gets considered for modeling economic time series.
