Testing the long-run validity of the monetary approach to the exchange rate: the won-US

Author

  • Dollar Case

Abstract

This paper examines via cointegration techniques the empirical validity of the monetary model of exchange rate determination as a long-run equilibrium condition for the Korean won-U.S. dollar rate over the recent period of economic liberalization in Korea. Using monthly data from 1980 to 1995, it is found that the unrestricted version of the monetary model provides a valid framework for analysing long-run movements in the exchange
