(1991)and Wahab et al.(1992)find that few profitable opportunities exist after transaction costs;(2)factors affecting ADR prices.Studies by Jiang(1998)and Kim et al.(2000)suggest that the variation in ADR returns can be explained by three factors:U.S.market returns,local market returns,and exchange rate changes;(3)price transmission dynamics between ADRs and their underlying securities.While Jiang(1998)shows that ADRs and their local shares influence each other,Kim et al.(2000)observe that most responses of ADRs to the unexpected price movements of underlying shares occur on the same calendar day;and(4)diversification gains from ADRs. Alaganar and Bhar(2005)indicate that ADRs have a low correlation with the U.S.stock market and thus provide an effective tool for U.S.investors to achieve portfolio diversification.Given the large body of literature on ADR,several important issues still need to be addressed. Although it is well known that afirm’s exchange rate risk consists of three components of eco-nomic exposure,translation exposure,and transaction exposure,2limited evidence exists on how exchange risk exposure in general and its components in particular affect the pricing of ADRs. Furthermore,it is not clear how the U.S.investors’risk attitude toward exchange risk affects their pricing of ADRs from different countries.In this study,we extend the existing literature on ADRs in several ways.First,unlike previous studies,we examine not only how exchange rate changes affect ADR returns in the U.S.market but also the underlying share returns of ADRs in the local markets.This analysis is important because it would provide relevant information on the exchange risk premium required by U.S. investors relative to local shareholders.Second,we take a further step to investigate how each of the two exchange risk components, economic exposure and translation exposure,affects ADR returns.In ADR investments,the economic exposure represents the changes in the underlying share returns of ADRs to changes in exchange rates,and the translation exposure represents the exchange risk associated with translating the underlying share returns in local currency into the returns in the U.S.dollar. Disentangling the effects of the two exchange risk components would enable investors to better understand the sources of ADR returns and the related risk,which,in turn,helps ADR investors construct better investment portfolios.3Third,we examine the effects of exchange rate changes and exchange risk components on the ADR returns of four countries including Australia,France,Japan,and the U.K.The cross-1According to Bank of New York,the annual trading volume of ADRs and other depositary receipts listed on U.S. exchanges increased from US$75billion in1990to US$1185billion in2000,implying an annual growth rate of31.8% (see the Bank of New York2000Year End Market Review:/dr pub statistics.jsp).2Economic exposure represents the sensitivity of afirm’s competitiveness to the changes in exchange rates,translation exposure represents the uncertain gains or losses when foreign currency assets are converted to home currency,and transaction exposure represents the sensitivity of afirm’s realized domestic currency value from thefirm’s contractual foreign cashflow.3For example,a depreciated foreign currency will improve a foreign exportingfirm’s competitiveness in the world market and thus increase thefirm’s underlying value through increased cashflows.For U.S.ADR investors,however, the same depreciated foreign currency becomes less valuable.Thus,the translation loss to ADR investors could offset or overweigh the gain in the localfirm’s underlying value;consequently,the underlying security could be a good investment for local investors but not for U.S.investors.S.C.Bae et al./J.of Multi.Fin.Manag.18(2008)165–179167 country comparison helps enhance our understanding of how the U.S.investors’risk attitude(or sentiment)toward foreign exchange risk differs across different countries.Finally,the research methodology and sample period in our study are distinguished from those in many of prior studies.The two-step method used in this paper has a distinctive advantage of examining the process of pricing foreign exchange risk in a clear manner without directly resorting to the multi-factor CAPM.Furthermore,our sample period covers1999–2001,during which the increase of U.S.investment in ADRs reached the peak point,reflecting U.S.investors’growing optimism and confidence in ADRs.Thus,the results based on this sample period will provide renewed information regarding U.S.investors’risk attitude toward ADR investments.Our study has important implications.For foreignfirms that seekfinancing in the U.S.capital market,the exchange risk premium required by U.S.ADR investors directly affects their cost of capital.For U.S.investors,understanding of the effect of exchange rates on ADR returns in addition to the prices of underlying shares and U.S.market returns will help them better design their global investment portfolios.Our results show that underlying share returns of ADRs are significantly negatively exposed to exchange rate changes for France,Japan,and the U.K.,but significantly positively for Australia. The negative effect in general suggests that the underlyingfirm value is adversely affected by the appreciation of local currency against the U.S.dollar.On the contrary,ADR returns are significantly positively related to exchange rate changes for all four countries,implying that a foreign currency appreciation against the U.S.dollar benefits the U.S.ADR investors because of the translation gains.As for risk premium,wefind that the source and magnitude of foreign exchange risk pre-mium vary significantly across countries.The significant differences in exchange risk pricing for Australian and French ADRs are closely related to the economic exposure component of the exchange rate risk,but the significant pricing differences for Japanese ADRs are closely related to the translation exposure of the exchange rate risk.2.Development of testable hypothesesAs the economic globalization continues and the world markets become more integrated,the price of the underlying share(P SHARE)of an ADR is formally determined as:P SHARE=f1(local market conditions,economic exposure)(1) If markets were perfectly efficient and internationally integrated with no divergent expectation on information among investors,the ADR price(P ADR)should be equal to the price of the respective underlying stock(P SHARE)adjusted for exchange rates(S),i.e.,P ADR=P SHARE×S,assuming that transaction cost is minimal.However,the world markets may not be perfectly integrated,and information asymmetry could possibly exist between local investors and U.S. ADR investors.Hence,the relative optimism or pessimism of local versus U.S.investors may contribute to the difference between the two prices.In addition,different sources of foreign exchange risk investors face will also lead to a different pricing of the exchange risk associated with ADRs.In ADR investments,changes in exchange rates affect both the return-generating process of the underlying shares(economic exposure)and the return translation of local currency into U.S.dollars(translation exposure).The translation exposure is additional exchange risk borne by U.S.investors.168S.C.Bae et al./J.of Multi.Fin.Manag.18(2008)165–179Following the literature(e.g.,Jiang,1998;Kim et al.,2000),the price of the ADR(P ADR)can be expressed as:P ADR=f2(P SHARE,U.S.market conditions,translation exposure)(2a) Of the three pricing factors for ADRs,the underlying share price(P SHARE)and translation exposure are obvious since an ADR represent a certain number of the underlying shares,which are translated into U.S.dollar for the U.S.investors.Although less obvious,U.S.market conditions also affect the ADR price.For example,Kim et al.(2000)note that U.S.market conditions affect ADR prices in two possible ways.First,U.S.investors evaluate the systematic risk of ADRs with reference to the U.S.market conditions.Second,the non-synchronous trading of ADRs(in the U.S.market)and their underlying shares(in foreign markets)could also make the U.S.and foreign markets correlated.Several empirical studies provide evidence in support of this argument(e.g., Jiang,1998;Suh,2003).As discussed above,exchange rate movements affect ADR prices in two ways via the eco-nomic exposure and the translation exposure components.This relation can be easily shown by substituting P SHARE in Eq.(2a)with f1in Eq.(1)and rearranging it as:P ADR=f2(local and U.S.market conditions,economic exposure,translation exposure)(2b) Based on above discussions,we posit Hypothesis1as follows:Hypothesis1.After controlling for the local and U.S.market conditions,the difference between an ADR price and its underlying share price adjusted for exchange rate changes reflects U.S. investors’required risk premium on the economic exposure and translation exposure components.To the extent that different countries are at different stages of economic andfinancial develop-ments and have different political environments,we conjecture that U.S.investors’risk attitude (or sentiment)toward investing in ADRs also varies across different countries.Hence,we posit our second hypothesis as follows:Hypothesis2.U.S.investors price differently the exchange rate risk of ADRs from different countries.The differences reflect the U.S.investors’different risk attitude(or sentiment).3.DataThe preliminary sample of our study consists of all foreignfirms that issued Level II(listing) or Level III(offering)ADRs on the NYSE over the four-year period of1998–2001.Level I ADRs are excluded since they are traded in the OTC market.In addition,ADRs traded on the AMEX or NASDAQ are excluded due to their substantially smaller sample size and low liquidity.4Since Australia,France,Japan,and the United Kingdom offer the largest number of ADRs on the NYSE, we focus on ADRs from these four countries.The number of ADRs(Levels II and III)listed for the four countries during the entire sample period are11,10,11and41for Australia,France, Japan,and the U.K.,respectively.After excluding ADRs without relevant data,thefinal sample includes10ADRs for Australia,9ADRs for France,10ADRs for Japan,and25ADRs for the U.K.Price data are collected from the DataStream and are checked using the CRSP Daily Return 4In2001alone,1558DR programs were offered globally,of which623DR programs were listed on U.S.exchanges with annual trading volume of US$752billion(see /adr).S.C.Bae et al./J.of Multi.Fin.Manag.18(2008)165–179169 File.Exchange rates,Euro rates,and market rates of return in local markets are also collected from the DataStream.We choose the sample period from1998to avoid or minimize at least the effect of the Asian financial crisis of1997.For empirical analysis in our study,we use weekly price data in order to mitigate the potential non-synchronous trading problem associated with daily price data.We collect Friday’s closing prices to construct a weekly data series for all variables except for the daily exchange rates and underlying share returns that are used to estimate covariance risk of exchange rates and share returns.5Furthermore,as a way to alleviate any potential idiosyncratic problem and focus on country characteristics,we construct equally-weighted portfolios of underlying shares and ADRs for each of the four countries.4.Empirical methods and results4.1.Summary statisticsTable1reports means and standard deviations of several variables of interest for each country computed with weekly data.The local market index return is the rate of return of each country’s selected stock market index:All Ordinary index for Australia,CAC40index for France,Nikkei 225index for Japan,and FTSE100index for the U.K.For comparison purpose,the S&P500 index is used for the U.S.Exchange rate changes are weekly changes of U.S.dollars per unit of each country’s currency.Three-month Eurocurrency interest rates are used as risk free interest rate for each country.For consistency,Eurodollar rates are used as risk free interest rate for the U.S.As shown in Table1,the local market index return,underlying share return,and ADR return are on average positive for Australia and France over the1998–2001period,but the local market index and ADRs for the UK produce a negative mean return.Both Japanese ADRs and their underlying stocks experience relatively large negative returns,consistent with the sluggish Japanese economy during the four-year period.Thefindings on exchange rate changes show that during the four-year period,the value of all currencies except for Japanese yen depreciates against the U.S.dollar.4.2.Estimation of foreign exchange rate exposureFollowing Jorion(1990),we estimate foreign exchange rate exposure of underlying shares in the local markets using the following time-series regression model for each country: UNDR t=a0+a1LMR t+a2EXR t+e t(3) where UNDR is the rate of return of underlying stock;LMR is the rate of return of local stock market;and EXR is the rate of exchange rate changes expressed in U.S.dollars per local currency unit.In Eq.(3),the coefficient of EXR,a2,measures exchange rate exposure of an underlying share,that is,the economic exposure component.Similarly,we estimate foreign exchange rate exposure of ADRs in the U.S.market by:ADRR t=b0+b1LMR t+b2USMR t+b3EXR t+u t(4)5Several studies employ weekly data in investigating premiums present in country funds(e.g.,Bodurtha et al.,1995; Chandar and Patro,2000).One may doubt that the results based on Friday’s closing prices could be biased due to the end-of-week effect.To check this issue,we also conducted our empirical analyses using Wednesday’s closing prices and found results qualitatively similar to those reported in our study with slightly lower adjusted R2.170S.C.Bae et al./J.of Multi.Fin.Manag.18(2008)165–179Table 1Mean and standard deviation of variables by countryCountry Local market index return (%)Underlying stock return (%)ADR

return and used to control the U.S.market condition(see Jiang,1998; Kim et al.,2000).The coefficient of EXR,b3,measures exchange rate exposure of an ADR, which represents both economic and translation exposure components of exchange rate risk as we discussed in Eq.(2).The regression results based on Eq.(3)are reported in Panel A of Table2for underlying share returns.The significant positive coefficients on LMR are as expected and suggest that the underlying share returns are positively related to local market conditions.The coefficients on EXR are negative and significant only for France and Japan.It is possible,however,that the foreign exchange exposure estimated by Eq.(3)(and Eq.(4),too)is biased downward if the local market return is also exposed to exchange rate changes.As a way to correct this problem,we adopt an orthogonalization procedure byfirst estimating a regression model of the local market index returns(LMR)with an explanatory variable of exchange rate changes(EXR).We then replace LMR in Eqs.(3)and(4)with the regression residual(LMRO)and estimate exchange rate exposure.6Regression results using the orthogonalization procedure for the underlying share returns are reported in Panel B of Table2.The key difference between the results in Panels A and B is that the coefficients on EXR vary across countries.The results suggest that after controlling for the local market effect,underlying share returns are adversely affected by exchange rate changes for France,Japan,and the U.K.For Australia,however,the appreciation of Australian dollar against U.S.dollar results in higher underlying share returns.6Several studies on foreign exchange risk exposure use similar orthogonalization procedures to avoid any estimation bias due to multicollinearity problem between independent variables and isolate exchange rate exposure from other risk and market factors(e.g.,Jorion,1990;Choi and Prasad,1995;Kiymaz,2003).172S.C.Bae et al./J.of

results based on Eq.(4)are reported in Table3for ADR returns.The positive and significant relation between ADR returns and exchange rate changes for all four countries indicates that when a local currency appreciates against U.S.dollar,the returns of ADRs from the corresponding country increase.In addition,consistent with thefindings of Kim et al.(2000),the results indicate that although ADRs are traded in the U.S.market and affected by the U.S.mar-ket environment,the local market environment plays a bigger role in determining ADR returns. To correct the possible estimation bias,we also use an orthogonalization procedure and replace LMR with regression residual(LMRO)in Eq.(4).As reported in Panel B of Table3,the regres-sion results on the three explanatory variables are qualitatively identical to those reported in Panel A.4.3.Measuring abnormal returns on ADR investmentsWhen market participants regard changes in foreign exchange rates as non-diversifiable sys-tematic risk,they will price the foreign exchange risk and require an additional return on the share exposed to exchange risk by discounting the share price.In this paper,we employ a two-step method to test the difference in pricing foreign exchange risk without directly resting on the multivariate CAPM.U.S.investors who have an interest in an underlying share traded in the local stock market can invest in its respective ADR without taking additional risk.Therefore,any discrepancy between the realized(observed)rate of return for an ADR and its expected(equilibrium)rate of return (which can be estimated by the rate of return of the underlying share and exchange rate changes) can be explained by differences in market conditions.We postulate that if the conditions of the U.S.market and the local market are controlled for,one will be able to extract the difference ofS.C.Bae et al./J.of Multi.Fin.Manag.18(2008)165–179173 pricing exchange risk from the difference between the realized and expected rates of return of an ADR.For expositional convenience,we call this difference as“abnormal return(AR)”and measure it as follows:AR t=ADRR t−(UNDR t+EXR t)(5) where ADRR is the observed rate of return on an ADR,UNDR the rate of return on the underlying share,and EXR is the change in exchange rates expressed in the U.S.dollar per local currency unit.The expected rate of return in parentheses represents the return in the U.S.dollar that U.S. investors would have received if they had invested directly in the underlying shares in the local market.Based on Eq.(5),we compute the average AR of ADRs in each country:−0.04%for Australia;0.02%for France;−0.02%for Japan;and−0.008%for U.K.The low average absolute values of AR seem to indicate that the possibility of arbitrage transactions between ADR and the underlying shares would leave little room for a systematic relation between the two.To gain further insights into whether the magnitude of ARs can be fully explained by arbitrage transaction costs,we examine ARs of sample ADRfirms both within a coun-try and between two countries.The results that are not reported for brevity’s sake indicate that arbitrage transaction costs may not fully account for the difference between the returns of underlying shares of ADRs and ADR returns adjusted by the currency rates.Rather,the return differences of ADRfirms are more highly correlated within a country than between countries.4.4.Determinants of foreign exchange risk premiumsThe results so far provide evidence supporting that returns of underlying shares and ADRs are significantly exposed to changes in exchange rates.To test the difference in exchange risk pricing between local and U.S.markets by relating AR measured in Eq.(5)to exchange rate covariance risk,we estimate the following regression model:AR t=c0+c1MD t+c2COV t+ηt(6) where MD is the difference in market risk premium(market return minus risk free rate)of the two markets—the U.S.and a local market.COV is the exchange rate covariance risk,capturing the difference in exchange risk pricing between the U.S.and the local markets.Total exchange risk of U.S.investors who invest in an ADR,which we denote as COV-ADR,can be measured by the covariance between the underlying share returns adjusted for exchange rate changes and exchange rate changes.This can be seen from:COV(ADRR, EXR)=COV(UNDR+EXR,EXR)=COV(UNDR,EXR)+V AR(EXR),where COV(ADRR, EXR)or COV(UNDR+EXR,EXR)represents the exchange rate covariance risk that ADR investors bear,and COV(UNDR,EXR),the exchange rate covariance risk of underlying share returns,is the exchange risk present in underlying share returns.Note also that COV(UNDR, EXR)represents the economic exposure component of exchange rate risk.As COV ADR contains both COVUND and V AR(EXR),the latter is the variance of exchange rate changes,COV ADR represents both the economic and translation exposure components of the exchange rate risk.If U.S.investors consider the total exchange risk as a pricing factor,and their pricing is different from that of local investors,then the exchange rate covariance risk of ADR returns(COV ADR) would explain the ADR’s abnormal return(AR)over the underlying share return adjusted for174S.C.Bae et al./J.of Multi.Fin.Manag.18(2008)165–179exchange rate changes.If foreign investors consider only the basic exchange risk(i.e.,economic exposure)as a pricing factor,however,then the exchange rate covariance risk of underlying share returns(COVUND)would explain ADR’s abnormal return,but COV ADR would not add any explanatory power.Putting all together,we measure the difference in pricing foreign exchange risk between foreign and local investors by estimating the following autoregressive model for each of the four countries: AR t=d0+d1AR t−1+d2AR t−2+d3MD t+d4COVUND t(or COV ADR t)+εt(7) Two lagged variables of AR(AR t−1and AR t−2)and the difference in market risk premium between the local market and the U.S.market(MD)are entered into the regressions as control variables.7We use the seemingly unrelated regression(SUR)analysis to take into account the cross-correlations among country estimation equations and to increase model efficiency(Zeller, 1962).8COVUND and COV ADR are measured using the covariance estimation model(see Chang et al.,1999).In Panel A of Table4,the four-variable regression model explains as low as35.2%of the variance of AR for Japan and as high as54.0%for France.The regression coefficient of MD is also positive and significant for all four countries.Hence,the difference in market risk premium of two markets is a significant factor in determining ADR abnormal returns.Our primary focus is on the estimated coefficients of COVUND,which are all negative but significant at least at the5%level only for Australia and France.Hence,exchange rate covariance risk of underlying share returns explains ADR abnormal returns for Australia and France but not for Japan or the bined with the results reported in Table2,the regression results indicate that as foreign exchange covariance risk associated with underlying share returns increases,foreign investors require a greater abnormal return for exchange risk of underlying share than local investors in France but a smaller abnormal return in Australia.For Japan and the U.K.,there is little difference in pricing exchange risk of underlying share returns between local investors and foreign investors.Panel B of Table4shows the SUR results of AR using COV ADR as an independent variable, where COV ADR is the covariance risk measure of expected ADR returns and exchange rate changes.The significantly positive coefficients of MD indicate that(1)the difference in the environment of local versus foreign markets is a key determinant of ADR abnormal returns for all countries,and(2)the abnormal return of ADRs tends to move in the same direction as the U.S. market.The results on the estimated coefficients of COV ADR are,however,noticeably different from those of COVUND.COV ADR carries a negative sign for Australia,France,and the U.K., and a positive sign for Japan.Thesefindings support the notion that foreign investors price foreign exchange risk of international investment portfolios differently than local investors.To examine further how different the effect of the exchange rate covariance risk is relative to that of underlying share returns on ADR abnormal returns,we include both COVUND and COV ADR as independent variables along with MD and two lagged variables of AR in the SUR model.Given that COVUND is a part of COV ADR,wefirst use an orthogonalization procedure (i.e.,COV ADR is orthogonalized on COVUND)to separate the effect of COVUND from the effect of COV ADR on AR,and then use the residual of the orthogonalization procedure(COV ADRO)7The number of autoregressive lags is determined through analyses offirst-order autocorrelation of residuals in each regression equation and the significance level of autocorrelation coefficients of AR t−i.8The cross-correlations among country estimation equations range from0.11to0.59,which are relatively high.。

The Bid-Ask Spread
• Banks provide foreign exchange services for a fee: the bank’s bid (buy) quote for a foreign currency will be less than its ask (sell) quote. This is the bid/ask spread. • bid/ask % spread = ask rate – bid rate ask rate • Example:Suppose bid price for £ = $1.52, ask price = $1.60. bid/ask % spread = (1.60–1.52)/1.60 = 5%

托福综合口语TASK5考点及评分标准介绍
托福综合口语TASK5考点及评分标准介绍托福口语分为独立口语和综合口语,前者自由度较高有很大发挥空间,今日我给大家带来托福综合口语TASK5考点及评分标准介绍,盼望可以关心到大家,下面我就和大家共享,来观赏一下吧。
托福综合口语TASK5考点及评分标准介绍托福综合口语TASK5考点分析从某种程度上来说,Task 5是综合型题目里比较好拿分数的一个部分。
新托福口语考试第五题属于校内场景,要求考生就高校生遇到的问题提出解决方法。
在这个部分中,考生将听到一段发生于两名同学,或者同学与教授,或同学与在校职工之间的对话,时长约为60-90秒,没有阅读内容。
在对话中,通常涉及其中一位同学遇到的问题,两人会就此问题进行争论,进而得出两个解决方法,但是有问题的那一方没有方法确定哪一种解决方案比较有效。
和第三题一样,对话双方为一男一女。
考生要精确把握男女双方毕竟谁遇到了麻烦。
有时,遇到麻烦的同学会倾听另一名同学提出的两种解决方法。
也有些时候,遇到问题的同学会自己想出两种解决方法,另一人给出反馈。
但是不管是哪种情形,考生都将听到两种解决问题的方法及其各自的利弊。
对话结束后,考生将听到一个问题,该问题同时也会消失在电脑屏幕上。
题目通常会要求考生简要总结问题并快速列举出两种解决方法。
而不同于综合型题目中的其他三个完全复述的题目,第五题口语题是唯一一道需要考生供应自己观点的部分,因此,题目要求中还需要考生选择自己认为比较好的一种解决方法并就自己的选择给出缘由。
由于从第五题开头考题中没有了阅读部分,考生的预备时间从前面的30秒削减到20秒,答题时间照旧为60秒。
而第五题的提问形式也是大同小异的,常见问法如下:1. The students discuss two possible solutions to the woman’s problem. Describe the problem. Then state which of the two solutions you prefer and explain why.2. Briefly summarize the problem the speakers are discussing. Then say which solution you would recommend. Explain the reasons for your recommendation不难看出,全部问题模式的目的都是全都的:要求考生总结听力里的问题及解决方案,但是都需要考生做出自己的选择并给出做此选择的缘由。

5.2 Exchange rate regimes 5.3 FX market participants
Source: BIS
5.1 An overview of the FX market
Spot market quotations
The price of a currency is expressed in terms of another currency – you are exchanging one currency for another The first currency mentioned is the price being sought (also called the base currency or the unit of quotation) The second currency is the term currency
5.1 An overview of the FX market
5.1 An overview of the FX market
FX market instruments are typically:
Spot transactions – maturity date 2 business days after the FX contract is entered into (USD/CAD is 1 business day) Forward transactions – maturity date more than 2 days after FX contract is entered into Dealers may also provide short-dated transactions if necessary ‘Tod’ – same-day settlement or ‘Tom’ – settlement tomorrow
5.1 An overview of the FX market
Forward points and forward exchange rates
The forward exchange rate is the FX bid/offer rates applicable at a specified date beyond spot value date The forward exchange rate varies from the spot rate owing to interest rate parity
5.1 An overview of the FX market
Spot market quotations
Bid-Ask Spread – The difference between the buy (bid) and sell (ask) price is the spread. This is often represented in percentage terms
1.6270 x 1.3292 = 2.1626
1.6275 x 1.3297 = 2.1641 GBP/NZD 2.1626-41
Example - Crossing two indirect FX quotation:
AUD/USD 0.9262-69 GBP/USD 1.6270-75 To determine the AUD/GBP cross-rate: 0.9262/1.6275 = 0.5691 0.9269/1.6270 = 0.5697 AUD/GBP 0.5691-97
Foreign Exchange
(Finance) Instruments & Markets – Lecture5
Learning objectives
Understand the nature of global FX markets Discuss participants in the FX markets Explain conventions for quotation and calculation of exchange rates and forward exchange rates, and complicating factors Explain how supply and demand issues determine an equilibrium exchange rate Consider mechanisms and relationships of factors influencing the exchange rate, including: Relative rates of inflation, national income growth, interest and exchange rate expectations and central bank or government intervention
Spot market quotations
Example - Crossing a direct and indirect FX quotation:
GBP/USD 1.6270-75 USD/NZD 1.3292-97 To determine the GBP/NZD cross-rate:
Transposing quotations – Sometimes a client will request a quotation with the base and term currencies ‘flipped’. Example: Given a quotation of EUR/AUD 1.3755-1.3765, the AUD/EUR quotation can be determined by transposing the quotation Reverse and invert Reverse the bid and offer prices: 1.3765 - 1.3755 Then take the inverse (divide both numbers into 1): 1/1.3765 – 1/1.3755 AUD/EUR 0.7265 – 0.7270
Interest rate parity is the principle that exchange rates will adjust to reflect interest rate differentials between countries
Forward exchange rates are quoted as forward points, either above or below the spot rate
