EXCHANGE RATES

Macro-economic indicators /
Factors that Influence Exchange Rates
• Exchange rates are one of the most watched and analyzed
economic measures across the world
• A key indicator of a country's economic health
• The exchange rate can be defined as the rate at which one
country's currency may be converted into another
• Rates are not just important to governments and large
financial institutions
• Also matter on a smaller scale, having an impact on the
real returns of an investor's portfolio
• There are several forces behind exchange rate movements
• Strong currencies make a nation's exports more expensive
and imports from foreign markets cheaper, whereas weaker
currencies make exports cheaper and imports more expensive
• Higher exchange rates adversely affect a country's balance of
trade but lower exchange rates have a positive effect on it
• Following are the main factors that cause changes and
fluctuations in exchange rates and outlines the reasons for
their volatility
1. Inflation Rates
 Changes in inflation cause changes in currency
exchange rates
 A country with a comparatively lower rate of inflation
experience an appreciation in the value of its currency
 The price of goods and services increases at a slower
rate when inflation is low
 Countries with a continually low inflation rate exhibit an
increasing currency value, whereas a country with
higher inflation typically experiences depreciation of its
currency and this is usually accompanied by higher
interest rates.
2. Interest Rates
 Any increase in a country's interest rate causes its currency to
increase in value as higher interest rates mean higher rates to
lenders, thus attracting more foreign capital, which in turn,
creates an increase in exchange rates
 Interest rates, inflation and exchange rates are all correlated.
 Central banks can influence both inflation and exchange rates by
manipulating interest rates.
 Higher interest rates offer lenders a higher return compared to
other countries.
3. Recession (decline)
 In the event a country's economy falls into a recession, its interest
rates will be dropped, hindering its chances of acquiring foreign
capital.
 The consequence of this is that its currency weakens in
comparison to that of other countries, thereby lowering the
exchange rate.
4.Government Debt
 Government debt is public debt or national debt owed by the
central government
 Countries with large public deficits and debts are less attractive to
foreign investors and are thus less likely to acquire foreign capital
which leading to inflation.
 Foreign investors will forecast a rise government debt within a
particular country.
 As a result, a decrease in the value of this country's exchange rate
will follow.
5. Current Account / Balance of Payments
 A country's current account reflects its balance of trade and
earnings on foreign investment
 It comprises of the total number of transactions including
exports, imports and debt
 A deficit in its current account comes as a result of spending
more of its currency on importing products than through exports
 This has the effect of lowering the country's exchange rate to the
point where domestic goods and services become cheaper than
imports, thereby generating domestic sales and exports as the
goods become cheaper on international markets.
6. Terms of Trade
 Terms of trade relate to a ratio which compares export prices to import
prices
 If the price of a country's exports increases by a higher rate than its
imports, its terms of trade will have improved
 Increasing terms of trade indicate a greater demand for a country's
exports
 This, in turn, results in an increase in revenue from exports which has the
effect of raising the demand for the country's currency and an increase in
its value
 In the event the price of exports rises by a lower rate than its imports, the
currency's value will decline in comparison to that of its trading partners
7. Political Stability and Performance
A country's political state and economic performance can
affect the strength of its currency.
A country with a low risk of political unrest is more
attractive to foreign investors, drawing investment away
from other countries perceived to have more political and
economic risk.
An increase in foreign capital leads to the appreciation in
the value of the country's currency, but countries prone to
political tensions are likely to see a depreciation in the rate
of their currency
Open Economy Identity
 On the basis of trade relationship with other countries,
economy can be divided into two
1. Open economy and
2. Closed economy
Where export and import constitute a major part of the
GDP of a country, it termed as open economy.
Such countries allow more or less open their
boundaries for trade and commerce
No trade restriction or barriers in such countries
Closed economy, import and export constitute only a
small share in their GDP
 Every country tries to maximize their export
 Increased export results in increase share of
international trade in GDP and the economy become
more and more open
 Export increase increase in production
Increase employment and income of persons associated
with export trade increase in demand
Thus, increase in export leads to increase the national
income
But increase in demand depends upon the marginal
propensity to save (MPS) and marginal propensity to
import (MPM)
MPS – change in saving due to a per unit change in income
MPM – change in import due to a per unit change in
production
The national income identity of an open economy can
be described as
Y = C + I + X – M
Where, Y = National income; C = Consumption;
I = Total investment; X = Export and M = Import
The above equation can be transformed into
Y - C = S = I + X – M
S + M = I + X
The above equation shows that, at equilibrium levels
of income the sum of savings and imports (S+M)
will be equal to investments and exports (I+X)
Further,
In an open economy there will be domestic
investment (Id) and foreign investments (If)
Since I = S
I = Id + If
Foreign investment (If) will be equal to the
difference between imports and exports
If = X – M
And
Id + X – M = S or
Id + X = S+ M
This is the equilibrium condition of national
income and in an open economy
Open Economy Multiplier
The concept of multiplier was developed by RF Kahn, latter it was
popularized by Keynes and then by Fritz Machlup
Multiplier is the coefficient relating and increment in output (return
or income) to an increment of investment
Open economy multiplier relates the increase in GNP due to increase
in export
The open economy multiplier depends upon the Marginal propensity
to save (MPS) and marginal propensity to import (MPM)
MPS means increase in savings for a per unit increase of income
MPM means the increase in import for a per unit increase in output
(GNP).
If there is no foreign trade MPM will be zero and then multiplier will
be 1/MPS.
• open economy there will be foreign trade, and Open
economy multiplier will be
• Eg: suppose MPS = 0.3 and MPM = 0.2, then increase in GNP
due to an increase in export of Rs. 1000 will be
• 1000 X = 1000 x = 1000 X 2 = Rs. 2000
Assumptions Under Multiplier Effect
1. Both domestic prices and exchange rates are fixed
2. The economy is operating at less than full employment so
that increase in demand result in an expansion of output
3. The authorities adjust the money supply to changes in
money demand by changing the interest rate

Macro economic indicattors

  • 1. MACRO ECONOMIC INDICATORS INFLUENCING EXCHANGE RATES Dr. Mohamed Kutty Kakkakunnan Associate Professor P G Dept. Of Commerce N A M College Kallikkandy Kannur – Kerala - India
  • 2. Macro-economic indicators / Factors that Influence Exchange Rates • Exchange rates are one of the most watched and analyzed economic measures across the world • A key indicator of a country's economic health • The exchange rate can be defined as the rate at which one country's currency may be converted into another • Rates are not just important to governments and large financial institutions • Also matter on a smaller scale, having an impact on the real returns of an investor's portfolio
  • 3. • There are several forces behind exchange rate movements • Strong currencies make a nation's exports more expensive and imports from foreign markets cheaper, whereas weaker currencies make exports cheaper and imports more expensive • Higher exchange rates adversely affect a country's balance of trade but lower exchange rates have a positive effect on it • Following are the main factors that cause changes and fluctuations in exchange rates and outlines the reasons for their volatility
  • 4. 1. Inflation Rates  Changes in inflation cause changes in currency exchange rates  A country with a comparatively lower rate of inflation experience an appreciation in the value of its currency  The price of goods and services increases at a slower rate when inflation is low  Countries with a continually low inflation rate exhibit an increasing currency value, whereas a country with higher inflation typically experiences depreciation of its currency and this is usually accompanied by higher interest rates.
  • 5. 2. Interest Rates  Any increase in a country's interest rate causes its currency to increase in value as higher interest rates mean higher rates to lenders, thus attracting more foreign capital, which in turn, creates an increase in exchange rates  Interest rates, inflation and exchange rates are all correlated.  Central banks can influence both inflation and exchange rates by manipulating interest rates.  Higher interest rates offer lenders a higher return compared to other countries.
  • 6. 3. Recession (decline)  In the event a country's economy falls into a recession, its interest rates will be dropped, hindering its chances of acquiring foreign capital.  The consequence of this is that its currency weakens in comparison to that of other countries, thereby lowering the exchange rate. 4.Government Debt  Government debt is public debt or national debt owed by the central government  Countries with large public deficits and debts are less attractive to foreign investors and are thus less likely to acquire foreign capital which leading to inflation.  Foreign investors will forecast a rise government debt within a particular country.  As a result, a decrease in the value of this country's exchange rate will follow.
  • 7. 5. Current Account / Balance of Payments  A country's current account reflects its balance of trade and earnings on foreign investment  It comprises of the total number of transactions including exports, imports and debt  A deficit in its current account comes as a result of spending more of its currency on importing products than through exports  This has the effect of lowering the country's exchange rate to the point where domestic goods and services become cheaper than imports, thereby generating domestic sales and exports as the goods become cheaper on international markets.
  • 8. 6. Terms of Trade  Terms of trade relate to a ratio which compares export prices to import prices  If the price of a country's exports increases by a higher rate than its imports, its terms of trade will have improved  Increasing terms of trade indicate a greater demand for a country's exports  This, in turn, results in an increase in revenue from exports which has the effect of raising the demand for the country's currency and an increase in its value  In the event the price of exports rises by a lower rate than its imports, the currency's value will decline in comparison to that of its trading partners
  • 9. 7. Political Stability and Performance A country's political state and economic performance can affect the strength of its currency. A country with a low risk of political unrest is more attractive to foreign investors, drawing investment away from other countries perceived to have more political and economic risk. An increase in foreign capital leads to the appreciation in the value of the country's currency, but countries prone to political tensions are likely to see a depreciation in the rate of their currency
  • 10. Open Economy Identity  On the basis of trade relationship with other countries, economy can be divided into two 1. Open economy and 2. Closed economy Where export and import constitute a major part of the GDP of a country, it termed as open economy. Such countries allow more or less open their boundaries for trade and commerce No trade restriction or barriers in such countries Closed economy, import and export constitute only a small share in their GDP
  • 11.  Every country tries to maximize their export  Increased export results in increase share of international trade in GDP and the economy become more and more open  Export increase increase in production Increase employment and income of persons associated with export trade increase in demand Thus, increase in export leads to increase the national income But increase in demand depends upon the marginal propensity to save (MPS) and marginal propensity to import (MPM) MPS – change in saving due to a per unit change in income MPM – change in import due to a per unit change in production
  • 12. The national income identity of an open economy can be described as Y = C + I + X – M Where, Y = National income; C = Consumption; I = Total investment; X = Export and M = Import The above equation can be transformed into Y - C = S = I + X – M S + M = I + X The above equation shows that, at equilibrium levels of income the sum of savings and imports (S+M) will be equal to investments and exports (I+X)
  • 13. Further, In an open economy there will be domestic investment (Id) and foreign investments (If) Since I = S I = Id + If Foreign investment (If) will be equal to the difference between imports and exports If = X – M And Id + X – M = S or Id + X = S+ M This is the equilibrium condition of national income and in an open economy
  • 14. Open Economy Multiplier The concept of multiplier was developed by RF Kahn, latter it was popularized by Keynes and then by Fritz Machlup Multiplier is the coefficient relating and increment in output (return or income) to an increment of investment Open economy multiplier relates the increase in GNP due to increase in export The open economy multiplier depends upon the Marginal propensity to save (MPS) and marginal propensity to import (MPM) MPS means increase in savings for a per unit increase of income MPM means the increase in import for a per unit increase in output (GNP). If there is no foreign trade MPM will be zero and then multiplier will be 1/MPS.
  • 15. • open economy there will be foreign trade, and Open economy multiplier will be • Eg: suppose MPS = 0.3 and MPM = 0.2, then increase in GNP due to an increase in export of Rs. 1000 will be • 1000 X = 1000 x = 1000 X 2 = Rs. 2000 Assumptions Under Multiplier Effect 1. Both domestic prices and exchange rates are fixed 2. The economy is operating at less than full employment so that increase in demand result in an expansion of output 3. The authorities adjust the money supply to changes in money demand by changing the interest rate
