This document discusses different types of exchange rate regimes. It provides examples of historical exchange rates between Caribbean currencies and the US dollar. It then defines an exchange rate regime as the system that determines the value of a domestic currency in terms of foreign currencies. The three main types of regimes are floating, where supply and demand determine the rate; fixed or pegged, where a currency is tied to another; and managed float, where a currency floats within a predetermined range. It provides details on how each regime works.

Exchange rates regime
This document discusses different types of exchange rate regimes including floating, fixed, and pegged exchange rates. It provides definitions and examples of each type. The document also discusses common opinions on exchange rate regimes, noting that floating rates are generally preferable as they allow automatic adjustment. However, it acknowledges that hybrid systems have evolved. The document then examines Ukraine's use of fixed and pegged exchange rates historically and its impacts. It concludes with recommendations for Ukraine to adopt a pegged floating exchange rate and take other steps to stabilize its monetary system.
Fixed vs floating exchange rate system
This document discusses and compares fixed and floating exchange rate systems. Under a fixed exchange rate system, a country's currency is pegged to another currency at a fixed rate. This stabilizes currency values but the system is vulnerable to speculation. Most currencies now float freely based on supply and demand. A floating exchange rate allows independent monetary policy and automatic balance of payments adjustments. While no system is definitively better, advanced economies tend to use floating rates while developing economies may benefit more from fixed rates initially.
Exchange rate regimes
This document discusses different types of exchange rate regimes and factors that influence a country's choice of regime. It describes exchange rate regimes as fixed pegs, currency boards, monetary unions, managed floats, and free floats. Countries choose regimes based on their openness, economic volatility, financial market depth, inflation rates, and political stability. Deeper financial markets and greater exposure to external shocks make floating regimes more suitable, while fixed pegs provide stability in politically unstable environments with concentrated trade. Overall, the document examines how exchange rates are managed and the socioeconomic factors that determine a country's exchange rate regime.

Foreign exchange market
The foreign exchange market allows individuals, banks, and firms to buy and sell currencies. It operates globally through telecommunications and includes spot, forward, futures, swap, and options contracts. Major participants include commercial banks, central banks, brokers, importers/exporters, speculators, and hedgers. The market facilitates international trade and investment by enabling currency exchange.
Foreign exchange
This document provides an overview of foreign exchange, including definitions, markets, exchange rate systems, and instruments of foreign payment. It defines foreign exchange as the currency of other countries and explains that foreign exchange markets allow countries to settle international debts. The two main exchange rate systems are fixed and floating rates. Under a fixed system the rate is set, while under a floating system the rate is determined by market forces. Common instruments for foreign payments include letters of credit, bills of exchange, bank drafts, and money orders. Exchange controls are implemented by governments to manage exchange rates and the balance of payments.
Foreign Exhange Rate
The document defines exchange rates as the rate at which one currency can be exchanged for another. Exchange rates are determined in the foreign exchange market, where currencies are bought and sold. The foreign exchange market serves several functions, including transferring funds between countries and providing short-term credit to importers. Exchange rates are influenced by factors such as inflation rates, interest rates, current account deficits, public debt levels, terms of trade, and political/economic stability. Various theories aim to determine exchange rates based on these economic fundamentals.
Gold Standard
Gold standard is a monetary system in which the standard unit of currency is a fixed quantity of gold or is kept at the value of a fixed quantity of gold.

Introduction to international finance
The document provides an introduction to international finance. It discusses that international finance is different than domestic finance due to foreign exchange and political risks, market imperfections, and expanded opportunity sets when operating globally. Effective international financial management requires controlling risks, managing imperfections, and maximizing opportunities while pursuing the goal of shareholder wealth maximization. Globalization trends like increased trade liberalization, financial market integration, and the emergence of the Euro as a global currency have further integrated the world economy.
International Finance
The document discusses India's balance of payments. It includes:
1. The current account which covers merchandise (exports and imports) and invisibles (services, transfers, investment income).
2. The capital account which includes foreign investment, loans, banking capital, and other capital flows.
3. Errors and omissions and the overall balance which is the sum of the current account, capital account and errors/omissions.
Multinational Financial Management: An Overview
The document provides an overview of international financial management for multinational corporations (MNCs). It discusses key concepts such as:
1) The main goal of MNCs is to maximize shareholder wealth, but agency conflicts can arise due to differing interests between managers and shareholders.
2) MNCs must decide whether to take a centralized or decentralized approach to management, balancing control and responsiveness.
3) Several theories help explain why firms expand internationally, such as comparative advantage and product life cycle theories.
4) MNCs have various methods to conduct international business, from exports to foreign direct investment through subsidiaries. Managing risks from foreign exchange, economies, and politics is important.
interest rate parity
This document discusses interest rate parity theory. It begins by defining spot and forward rates. Spot rates are prices for immediate settlement, while forward rates refer to rates for future currency delivery adjusted for cost of carry. Interest rate parity theory states that interest rate differentials between currencies will be reflected in forward premiums or discounts. The theory prevents arbitrage opportunities by making returns equal whether investing domestically or abroad when measured in the home currency. The document provides an example of covered and uncovered interest rate parity. Covered parity involves hedging exchange rate risk while uncovered parity does not. Empirical evidence shows uncovered parity often fails while covered parity generally holds for major currencies over short time horizons.
Purchasing power parity theory
The document discusses the Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) theory, which states that exchange rates between currencies are determined by their relative purchasing power. It explains that under PPP, exchange rates adjust to changes in inflation so that the same goods cost the same in each country when prices are converted to a common currency. The document outlines the absolute and relative versions of PPP theory and notes some limitations, such as differences in goods baskets between countries. An example is provided to demonstrate how exchange rates adjust proportionally according to changes in domestic and foreign inflation rates under relative PPP.
Exchange rates & international financial system
There are different exchange rate systems that determine how currencies relate to one another. These include freely floating rates set by supply and demand, managed floats where central banks intervene in volatile markets, target zones where rates are kept within an agreed upon range, and fixed rates where one currency is pegged to another. Historically many currencies were backed by gold or silver, tying exchange rates directly to the value of the commodities, but most currencies now have no intrinsic value.
Fixed and Floating exchange rate
This document provides an overview of fixed and flexible exchange rate systems. It discusses key concepts like the demand and supply of foreign exchange, historical exchange rate regimes like the gold standard and Bretton Woods system, and current regimes including pegged rates, crawling pegs, and target zones. The advantages of fixed exchange rates are outlined as promoting international trade and investment by providing certainty, removing speculative activities, and being suitable for currency areas and developing countries seeking economic stability.
International parity condition
The document discusses several foreign exchange parity conditions and arbitrage activities:
1) Purchasing power parity states that exchange rates will adjust to reflect differences in inflation rates between countries. Absolute PPP says price levels should be equal globally, while relative PPP says exchange rates adjust for domestic and foreign price levels.
2) Interest rate parity establishes that forward rates differ from spot rates by an amount offsetting interest rate differentials, eliminating arbitrage profits.
3) Arbitrage activities seek to profit from temporary deviations from these parity conditions by exploiting differences in currency prices across locations or markets. This helps drive prices back into alignment.
Foreign exchange risk
This document discusses foreign exchange risk and its management. It defines foreign exchange risk as the risk of an investment's value changing due to currency fluctuations. It identifies the main types of foreign exchange risk as transaction risk, translation risk, and economic risk. Transaction risk arises from currency movements between the signing and execution of contracts. Translation risk occurs when consolidating financial statements in different currencies. Economic risk affects the long-term expected profits and wealth of a company due to currency changes. The document outlines various hedging strategies to manage these risks, including the use of forwards, futures, and money markets.
Exchange rate theories
This document discusses several exchange rate theories, including the traditional or elasticities approach, purchasing power parity (PPP), and interest rate parity (IRP).
The traditional approach assumes an equilibrium exchange rate where a country's imports balance its exports. If imports exceed exports, the exchange rate will fall to make the country's exports cheaper and imports more expensive, balancing trade.
PPP has both an absolute and relative form. In absolute PPP, similar goods should have the same price in different currencies. Relative PPP recognizes market imperfections but holds that inflation rates between countries will offset exchange rate changes over time.
IRP links exchange and money markets, stating that interest rate differences between countries should equal forward exchange
Factors affecting exchange rates
This document discusses factors that affect foreign exchange rates, including relative inflation rates between countries, interest rates, international trade balances, foreign currency supply, and net international reserves of a country. Floating and managed exchange rate regimes are also covered. The author predicts that the Egyptian pound will face challenges maintaining its value against the US dollar in 2009 due to declining factors like international reserves and an increasing trade deficit, and may depreciate to reach 6 Egyptian pounds per US dollar by the end of the year.
Euro-Currency and Euro-Dollar Market
The document discusses Eurocurrency and the Eurodollar market. It defines Eurocurrency as currency deposited by governments or corporations in banks outside their home market, such as US dollars deposited in a London bank. The Eurodollar market refers specifically to US dollar deposits held in banks outside the US. The market originated in the late 1950s when European banks began accepting dollar deposits. It grew due to less regulation than in the US market, allowing for higher interest rates and more banking competition internationally. However, the unregulated nature of offshore banking also carries greater risks of bank failures and foreign exchange volatility for borrowers.
IMF
The IMF was established in 1944 at the Bretton Woods Conference to promote international monetary cooperation and stability. It currently has 188 member countries. The IMF works to foster global growth and economic stability through its main functions of surveillance, technical assistance, and financial support. It is governed by the Board of Governors and managed by an Executive Board and Managing Director. While the IMF aims to stabilize currencies and financial systems, its policies have also faced criticism for imposing austerity that negatively impacts social services, labor rights, and the environment in some member countries.
Spot and Forward Exchange Rate
The document discusses spot exchange rates, which are the prices for exchanging one currency for another for immediate delivery, usually within two business days. Spot exchange rates represent the price paid in one currency to purchase another currency. They are the prevailing rates in the foreign exchange market for currencies that are delivered immediately as opposed to a future date. Spot exchange rates make up 43% of total foreign exchange transactions and are prone to fluctuations from day to day. A spot contract is an agreement to exchange currencies at the spot rate for delivery within the standard settlement period, which is two business days after the trade date.
Foreign exchange exposure & risk-differentiation
The document differentiates between foreign exchange exposure and exchange risk. Foreign exchange exposure is defined as the extent to which a company's transactions, assets, and liabilities are denominated in currencies other than its reporting currency. Exchange risk refers to potential gains or losses from changes in exchange rates on a company's foreign exchange exposure. Exposure relates to total foreign currency denominated values, while risk relates to excess or shortfalls from exchange rate fluctuations. There are three types of foreign exchange exposure - transaction, translation, and economic - and three types of risk - transaction, translation, and economic.
Foreign exchange rate determination
The document discusses factors that determine foreign exchange rates, including:
- Fundamental factors like the balance of payments, economic growth rates, fiscal and monetary policy, interest rates, and political stability.
- Technical factors like government control of exchange rates and capital flows between countries.
- Speculation, which can increase exchange rate volatility.
It also examines how market fundamentals, expectations, and capital asset transfers impact exchange rates in the short-term, while economic activity, inflation, investment, trade policy influence long-term exchange rates. Purchasing power parity is discussed as a better way to compare GDP between countries than market exchange rates.
Role and function of imf
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) was conceived in 1944 and established in 1945 with 45 founding member countries. The IMF works to improve the economies of its member countries and oversees the global financial system by monitoring members' macroeconomic policies. It aims to stabilize international exchange rates and facilitate development through loans that require liberalizing economic policies. The IMF provides short-term loans to countries having balance of payments problems and is headquartered in Washington D.C.
Purchasing power parity
The document discusses the concept of purchasing power parity (PPP). It defines PPP as the exchange rate between two currencies that would equalize the purchasing power of the currencies in their respective countries. The document notes that under PPP, a given amount of one currency should have the same purchasing power whether used directly to purchase goods in that country or converted to the other currency at the PPP rate. It then asks several questions about how inflation, interest rates, and other factors may impact exchange rates. The rest of the document provides explanations of absolute and relative PPP, how PPP is used to make cross-country comparisons, and some limitations of the PPP theory.
Exchange rate system
1. The document outlines the history of currency exchange rate systems from the gold standard in the 1800s to the present day.
2. It describes the three main categories of exchange rate regimes: flexible exchange rates, managed floating, and fixed exchange rates.
3. Flexible exchange rates are determined by market forces, while managed floating involves some government intervention and fixed rates keep currencies at constant values against other currencies or currency baskets.
Exchange rate determination
This document discusses foreign exchange rates and their determination. It explains that foreign exchange rates are the rates at which one country's currency can be converted into another's. These rates are determined by currency supply and demand in global foreign exchange markets. The key factors that influence supply and demand - and thus exchange rates - include interest rates, inflation rates, government budgets, and political stability. The document also outlines different exchange rate systems like fixed, floating, and managed rates.

Exchange rate determination.
This paper develops an equilibrium model of the determination of exchange rates and prices of goods. Changes in relative prices due to supply or demand shifts induce changes in exchange rates and deviations from purchasing power parity. These changes may create a correlation between the exchange rate and the terms of trade, but this correlation cannot be exploited by governments to affect the terms of trade through foreign exchange market operations. The model emphasizes the role of relative price changes due to real disturbances and how these changes affect both exchange rates and the terms of trade through shifts in supply and demand. Government interventions in foreign exchange markets cannot influence exchange rates if the relationship between exchange rates and terms of trade is due to shifts in real supply and demand for domestic and foreign goods.

Foreign exchange market-final ppt(my)
The foreign exchange market or forex market as it is often called is the market in which currencies are traded.
Currency Trading is the world’s largest market consisting of almost trillion in daily volumes
The market continues to rapidly grow. Not only is the forex market the largest market in the world, but it is also the most liquid, differentiating it from the other markets.
There is no central marketplace for the exchange of currency, but instead the trading is conducted over-the-counter.
This decentralization of the market allows traders to choose from a number of different dealers to make trades with and allows for comparison of prices. Typically, the larger a dealer is the better access they have to pricing at the largest banks in the world, and are able to pass that on to their clients.
The spot currency market is open twenty-four hours a day, five days a week, with currencies being traded around the world in all of the major financial centers.
All trades that take place in the foreign exchange market involve the buying of one currency and the selling of another currency simultaneously. This is because the value of one currency is determined by its comparison to another currency.
The first currency of a currency pair is called the “base currency,” while the second currency is called the counter currency. The currency pair shows how much of the counter currency is needed to purchase one unit of the base currency.
Currency pairs can be thought of as a single unit that can be bought or sold. When purchasing a currency pair, the base currency is being bought, while the counter currency is being sold.
Forex Capital Markets (FXCM) is an online currency trading firm that offers a free demo account to traders who are new and interested in the foreign exchange market.
It allows you to experience every step of currency trading including choosing currency pairs, deciding how much risk to take, tracking the time and dates of placed trades, deciding how long to stay in the trade, and when to exit the trade. It also allows the placing of stop and limit orders on trades.

Characteristics of foreign exchange
Its huge trading volume representing the largest asset class in the world leading to high liquidity;
Its geographical dispersion;
Its continuous operation: 24 hours a day except weekends, i.e., trading from 20:15 GMT on Sunday until 22:00 GMT Friday;
The variety of factors that affect exchange rates;
The low margins of relative profit compared with other markets of fixed income;
The use of leverage to enhance profit and loss margins and with respect to account size.
Functional Finance for Fixed Exchange Rate Economies
This document discusses functional finance approaches for countries with fixed exchange rates. It notes that countries with fixed exchange rates have limited policy flexibility compared to those with flexible rates. However, countries with foreign exchange reserves above the minimum required for maintaining their peg have greater ability to pursue deficit spending and meet goals like full employment. The example of Saudi Arabia is provided, as a major oil exporter that has seen rising reserves in recent decades, allowing greater fiscal policy space to support economic and social objectives.

Fe rate determntn &forcastng
This document discusses foreign exchange rate determination and forecasting. It covers several theories of exchange rate determination, including purchasing power parity, balance of payments, monetary, and asset market approaches. Additional factors like political, economic, and social events are also noted to influence exchange rates. The document uses examples like the Asian Financial Crisis and Argentine crisis to illustrate exchange rate fluctuations in emerging markets. Both fundamental analysis and technical analysis are presented as methods to forecast exchange rates in the short and long-term.
Foreign exchange rate impact (1)
The document discusses foreign exchange rates and the foreign exchange market. It provides definitions of key terms like exchange rate, spot rate, and forward rate. It describes the functions and key characteristics of the foreign exchange market, including that the daily global turnover is over $2 trillion and the US dollar is involved in 87% of transactions. It also outlines the different types of transactions that occur in the market and identifies the major participants, including banks, companies, speculators, central banks, and foreign exchange brokers.
International monetary system
The document discusses the evolution of international monetary systems from early systems of bimetallism up to the current flexible exchange rate regime. Key points include:
- Under bimetallism before 1875, both gold and silver were used internationally as money with Gresham's Law implying the least valuable metal would circulate.
- The classical gold standard from 1875-1914 established gold as the primary global reserve asset with currencies pegged to gold and exchange rates determined by relative gold contents.
- The interwar period saw the breakdown of the gold standard and widespread currency devaluations.
- The Bretton Woods system from 1945-1972 pegged currencies to the U.S. dollar which was peg
Balance of payments and Exchange rate
The document discusses India's balance of payments (BoP). It defines BoP as a systematic record of all economic transactions between residents of a country and foreign countries over a period. India's BoP includes a current account for trade in goods/services and transfers, and a capital account for financial flows. In the early 1990s, India faced a BoP crisis due to rising oil prices and falling equity prices. To address this, India introduced economic reforms like decontrolling the rupee and liberalizing foreign investment and trade. These reforms expanded India's foreign trade and improved its BoP position over time.
Foreign Trade
In this presentation, we will discuss various features and types of foreign trade. We will also discuss the favorable and unfavorable conditions for trading, important legal terms and agreements that needs to be maintained, methods of foreign trade, off-shore banking and overview on European currency units.

02[1].international monetary system
This chapter introduces students to the international monetary system and how it has evolved over time. It discusses key historical exchange rate regimes like bimetallism, the classical gold standard, and Bretton Woods system. It also examines recent currency crises in Mexico, Asia, and Argentina. Fixed regimes aim for stability but lack flexibility, while flexible rates create uncertainty for trade.
Ch04 Exchange rate determination
This document discusses exchange rate determination and factors that influence exchange rates. It begins by explaining how exchange rates are measured in terms of currency appreciation and depreciation. The equilibrium exchange rate is then defined as being determined by the demand and supply of currencies. Several factors are described as influencing the equilibrium rate, including inflation rates, interest rates, income levels, government controls, and expectations about future exchange rates. The interaction of these factors and how they can both reinforce and offset each other is also discussed. The chapter concludes by examining how commercial banks can speculate on anticipated exchange rate movements.
International Monetary System
The international monetary system has evolved over time from bimetallism and the classic gold standard to the current floating exchange rate system. The Bretton Woods system established fixed exchange rates pegged to the US dollar, which was convertible to gold. It collapsed in the 1970s when the US suspended dollar convertibility. Currently, the flexible exchange rate regime categorizes systems as floating, pegging, or target zones. Floating rates are determined by market forces while pegging and target zones involve varying degrees of intervention to stabilize rates. The international monetary system facilitates global trade and investment by providing exchange rate stability and liquidity.
Foreign exchange market and it's structure in india
The document discusses the structure and features of the foreign exchange market. It begins by defining foreign exchange and describing the major participants in the exchange market, including commercial banks, money changers, and the Foreign Exchange Dealers Association of India (FEDAI). It then outlines the roles and regulations of various authorized entities that can participate in the market, such as authorized dealers and restricted authorized dealers. Finally, it discusses key characteristics of the foreign exchange market, including that it is a 24-hour global market connected by communication channels with a daily turnover of $2.75-3 trillion.
The Foreign Exchange Market
The document discusses the foreign exchange market and its evolution from the gold standard to fixed exchange rates to the current floating exchange rate system. It provides details on the Bretton Woods Agreement which established fixed exchange rates between currencies from 1944 to 1971. It then describes how the US dollar became overvalued leading countries to abandon fixed rates and transition to a floating exchange rate system.

It then provides an example of converting USD to EUR. The document goes on to describe different types of exchange rate systems, including fixed rates set by governments and floating rates determined by market forces. It also distinguishes between nominal exchange rates, which are currency prices, and real exchange rates, which account for price levels to compare purchasing power between countries. Factors that can influence exchange rates are also outlined.

current account deficit and surplus.pptx
The document discusses current account deficits and surpluses, defining them as when the total value of exports is less than (deficit) or greater than (surplus) imports. It then discusses causes and consequences of deficits and surpluses, including factors that can lead to deficits like insufficient domestic resources or currency value issues, and benefits of surpluses like higher profits. The drawbacks of surpluses are also noted. Exchange rates are defined and factors that can cause currency values to rise or fall are explained.
Foreign Exchange
1) Foreign exchange rates are determined by the forces of supply and demand in global currency markets and can fluctuate daily. They are influenced by economic factors like relative growth, inflation, interest rates, and speculation among traders.
2) Countries can manage exchange rates through central bank intervention or by pegging their currency to another. Flexible rates float freely while fixed rates are pegged at a set level.
3) International theories like purchasing power parity and interest rate parity aim to explain relationships between exchange rates, inflation, and interest rates in different economies over time.
Foreign exchange management

Key aspects of the FX market are defined, such as the OTC market structure, major participants like international banks, and 24/7 global trading.
Corrective measures of BOP disequilibrium
To correct a balance of payments deficit, a country has monetary and trade measures available. Monetary measures include deflation, devaluation, exchange rates, and exchange depreciation. Trade measures involve export promotions and import controls such as quotas. Deflation lowers prices to make exports cheaper abroad. Devaluation reduces the value of the home currency to boost exports and curb imports. Quotas limit the quantity of goods that can be imported to reduce the deficit and improve the balance of payments.
The bretton woods system
The Bretton Woods system established in 1944 aimed to govern international monetary and exchange rate regulations through institutions like the IMF and World Bank. It intended to set a fixed exchange rate between currencies pegged to the U.S. dollar, which was pegged to gold. This was expected to promote international cooperation and financial stability. However, the system broke down in the 1970s as countries could no longer maintain the required exchange rate adjustments due to large balance of payments crises, replacing it with floating exchange rates.
Foreign Exchange Rate.pptx
The document discusses foreign exchange rates, factors that affect exchange rates, and different exchange rate systems. It defines foreign exchange rate as the price of one currency expressed in terms of another. Exchange rates can be fixed, determined by a central bank, or floating, determined by market supply and demand. Factors that influence exchange rates include economic, political, and psychological factors. The main exchange rate systems are fixed rates, floating rates, and managed floating rates where central banks sometimes intervene. The document also defines depreciation, devaluation, revaluation, and appreciation of currencies in exchange rates.
Exchange Rate Mechanism (ERM) & Exchange Rate and Types
The document discusses exchange rate mechanisms and types of exchange rates. It provides details about:
1) The Exchange Rate Mechanism (ERM) which is used by central banks to manage currency exchange rates relative to other currencies through fixed or floating exchange rates.
2) The notable European ERM introduced in 1979 to reduce exchange rate variability between European countries before adopting a single currency. It faced issues in 1992 when Britain withdrew.
3) Types of exchange rates including fixed rates which maintain stable rates, floating rates set by market forces, and managed floats where governments influence rate changes.
Foreign exchange and balance of payments
Foreign exchange and balance of payments documents key concepts including:
- Foreign exchange refers to international monetary exchange according to Hartly Wethers. It is important for services, imports, transferring purchasing power and funds.
- The Foreign Exchange Regulation Act of 1973 and the Foreign Exchange Management Act of 1999 aimed to regulate and manage foreign exchange transactions in India.
- The objectives of FEMA include promoting an orderly foreign exchange market, facilitating external trade and payments, and removing imbalances in payments.
- Foreign exchange rates are determined by theories like purchasing power parity, balance of payments, and monetary approaches based on demand and supply of money and goods.
Relation between interest and exchange rate

The impact on the Indian economy and future policy suggestions are also covered.
Government Influence on Exchange Rates
describing the exchange rate systems, explaining how government uses direct and indirect intervention to influence exchange rates, and how government intervention in the forex markets.
IMS.docx
International monetary systems are sets of rules and institutions that facilitate international trade and investment flows. A good system allows quick and low-cost balance of payments adjustments, maintains stable exchange rates to promote confidence, and provides liquidity to address temporary deficits. Historically, systems have included bimetallism, the classical gold standard, Bretton Woods, and currently either fixed or floating exchange rates. Exchange rate regimes impact exporters and importers - depreciation boosts exports but hurts imports, while appreciation has the opposite effects. Businesses are also indirectly impacted through higher import costs or currency conversion fees on international payments.
Exchangeratesystem 121213104444-phpapp02
1. The document outlines the history of currency exchange rate systems from the gold standard in the 1800s to the present day.
2. It describes the three main categories of exchange rate regimes: flexible exchange rates, managed floating, and fixed exchange rates.
3. Flexible exchange rates are determined by market forces, while managed floating involves some government intervention and fixed rates keep currencies at constant values against other currencies or currency baskets.
Exchange Rate Determination
The document discusses exchange rate determination and factors that influence exchange rates. It defines exchange rates as the price of one currency in terms of another, and explains that exchange rates are determined by the relative demand and supply of the currencies. Exchange rates can appreciate or depreciate based on relative inflation rates, interest rates, income levels, and expectations between countries, as well as government controls and speculative activities in foreign exchange markets. The document provides examples of how a bank can profit by borrowing one currency at a lower interest rate and lending it at a higher interest rate based on anticipated exchange rate movements.
International Economics
The balance of payments (BOP) records a country's transactions with other countries. It has two main categories: the current account which covers trade in goods, services, and income, and the capital and financial account which covers capital transfers and financial flows. The overall BOP position is the change in a country's net international reserves resulting from transactions. It is calculated as the current account balance plus the capital and financial account balance minus net unclassified items. The document provides the Philippines' BOP data for 2009 and 2010, showing growth rates for each component.
Financial environment
1. The document discusses key topics related to international finance and marketing, including the historical role of the US dollar, development of the international monetary system, fixed vs floating exchange rates, foreign exchange rates, and balance of payments.
2. It provides details on factors that influence exchange rates like inflation, current accounts, and interest rates. It also explains concepts such as purchasing power parity, spot rates, and forward rates.
3. Several sections cover economic crises around the world, from the Asian financial crisis to rising inflation in emerging markets. It analyzes the causes and impacts of these crises as well as corporate and consumer responses.

Direct vs indirect taxes
This document distinguishes between direct and indirect taxes. Direct taxes include income tax, corporation tax, capital gains tax, and capital transfer tax, which are paid by individuals and businesses directly. Indirect taxes are levied on the consumption of goods and services, through taxes like customs duty, excise duty, stamp duty, and sales/consumption taxes that are paid by manufacturers and importers and passed on to consumers. Examples are provided of calculating income tax, capital gains tax, customs duties, and excise taxes to illustrate how these different types of direct and indirect taxes are applied.
Methods of discharge/termination of contracts
This document discusses various methods by which contracts can be discharged or terminated, including performance, breach, agreement between parties, impossibility or frustration of purpose, lapse of time, death, and other methods such as bankruptcy, waiver, or merger into a new contract. It defines types of performance like partial, substantial, and complete, and categories of breach such as anticipatory and actual. In summary, it provides an overview of the key ways that contracts can no longer be enforced once obligations have been fulfilled or circumstances prevent fulfillment.
Economic Systems CAPE
The document discusses four main types of economic systems: traditional, command/planned, free market, and mixed. It defines each system, describes their key features such as motivation and ownership, and analyzes their advantages and disadvantages. Traditional systems are based on customs and subsistence production. Command economies involve centralized state planning and ownership. Free markets rely on private ownership and the mechanism of supply and demand. Mixed systems combine public and private aspects. Examples of each type are also provided.
The supply of land
Land is a naturally occurring resource that differs from capital and labor in that its overall supply cannot be increased to meet demand. While the total supply of land is fixed, the supply available for a specific use or industry is not, as land use can shift between agricultural, recreational, and residential depending on who offers the highest price. As the price paid for land increases, more land will be supplied for that particular use, resulting in an upward-sloping and elastic supply curve for land available to individual markets.
Shifts vs changes in slopes
A shift in a production possibility curve occurs when resources for both goods change, causing the entire curve to shift. A change in slope happens when resources for one good change, causing the maximum output of that good to increase or decrease while the other good's maximum remains the same, represented by a rotation of the curve. The document provides an example of Canada obtaining more corn from South America, allowing for increased tortilla production but unchanged oven output.
Measures to reduce income inequality
This document outlines several measures that could be used to reduce income inequality:
1) A progressive tax system where tax rates increase with income could generate government revenue to fund services for low-income groups like healthcare, housing, and education.
2) Transfer payments like child support and disability payments that are made without an exchange of services increase the income of underprivileged households.
3) Subsidies for education can promote equal access and increase graduation rates, helping to reduce future inequality.
Private sector intervention to correct market failure
The private sector uses four main measures to address market failures:
1. Corporate codes of conduct that set standards for product safety and quality as well as social and environmental issues to address information failures.
2. Corporate social responsibility programs that voluntarily reduce negative externalities and increase positive ones to improve social welfare.
3. Voluntary agreements with governments where firms commit to gradually reduce pollution emissions over time.
4. Corporate ethics codes that establish norms of behavior for employees to internalize external costs as private costs.
While these measures can improve welfare by reducing market failures, they also increase business costs, which may be passed onto consumers as higher prices.
Market failure explanation
Market failure occurs when the free market does not allocate resources efficiently to maximize societal welfare. It happens when the market output level does not coincide with where marginal social costs equal marginal social benefits. This means the market overproduces or underproduces a product compared to the efficient level where welfare is maximized. Market failure definitionally refers to situations where the allocation of resources by the market mechanism is inefficient.
Marginal costs and benefits private external and social
This document defines and compares private, external, and social marginal costs and benefits. Private marginal costs are costs to firms, reflected in supply curves. External marginal costs are borne by third parties not involved in the transaction. Social marginal cost is the total cost to society, which equals private marginal cost plus external marginal cost. Similarly, private marginal benefits accrue to consumers, external marginal benefits are enjoyed by third parties, and social marginal benefit is the total benefit to society.
Labour mobility and wages
Labour mobility refers to the ease with which workers can move between jobs either geographically or occupationally. Geographical mobility involves moving between jobs in different locations, while occupational mobility is moving between different jobs within an industry. Higher labour mobility leads to a convergence of wages across markets as workers move from low wage to high wage areas. However, in reality complete wage convergence does not occur due to barriers like a lack of information about other labour markets or difficulties transferring human capital between occupations.
Costs of poverty
This document outlines four key costs of poverty: 1) unemployed human resources as poverty leads to a lack of jobs and unemployed individuals, 2) lower potential output as unemployed individuals are unable to contribute to economic growth and GDP, 3) inefficient allocation of government expenditure as funds must be spent on welfare programs rather than productive investments, and 4) social and environmental costs such as increased crime, health issues, and environmental degradation as poverty exacerbates social problems.
Size and functional distribution of income
Economists have tried to explain how income is distributed by looking at both the size and functional distribution of income. The functional distribution divides national income according to the main sources of income - rents, profits/interest, and wages. It focuses on three social classes. However, by the late 19th century the lines between classes were blurring. The size distribution instead looks at inequality between individual income earners regardless of source, and can include those with multiple sources of income across different classes.
Costs of production
This document defines and provides examples of different types of costs including fixed costs, variable costs, total costs, average costs, and marginal costs. Fixed costs remain constant regardless of production quantity, such as rent. Variable costs change with output level, like packaging. Total cost is the sum of fixed and variable costs. Average costs are calculated by dividing total costs by units of output. Marginal cost represents the change in total cost from producing one additional unit.
Sub-Accounts of the Balance of Payments
The document discusses the balance of payments of a country. It is a record of all economic transactions between a country and the rest of the world, including payments made (outflows) and received (inflows). The balance of payments has two main accounts - the current account, which records trade in goods and services, income, and transfers; and the capital account, which covers capital flows from private and government sources like foreign direct investment. When the current and capital accounts are not balanced, it affects a country's official foreign reserves.
Demand for money
This document discusses the three motives that drive individuals' demand for money: transactionary, precautionary, and speculative. Transactionary demand refers to money held for regular purchases and bills that are paid periodically but not simultaneously to when individuals are paid. Precautionary demand is money held for unforeseen life events. Speculative demand arises from hoping to profit from changes in bond prices, with higher interest rates reducing speculative money holding as bonds become more attractive. Overall, demand for money results from the combination of needs for transactions, precautions, and speculation.
Land as a factor of production
An outline of land including its definition, characteristics, types (or uses), importance and productivity.
Characteristics of market structures
Market structure refers to the characteristics that determine how firms in an industry behave, including the number of firms, type of product, control over price, and freedom of entry and exit. The number of firms ranges from many to few or one. Products can be standardized or differentiated in physical or perceived ways. Firms have varying levels of control over price depending on competition. Barriers to entry like licenses or high costs can impact the freedom firms have to enter or exit an industry.
Quality of life
The document defines quality of life according to the World Health Organization as an individual's perception of their position in life based on their culture, goals, and health. It is affected by physical and mental health, independence, social relationships, beliefs, and environment. The document then lists six key indicators that were identified with over 83% accuracy: 1) extent of security, 2) availability of health, education, and recreation facilities, 3) diet and nutrition, 4) life expectancy, 5) infant mortality rate, and 6) access to public utilities and technology. Examples are provided for each indicator explaining how it impacts an individual's quality of life.
Terms of sale
This document outlines several common terms of sale: cash payments involve immediate payment with various methods and are common for small purchases, while credit allows purchasing high-priced items by paying an additional interest charge over time. Hire purchase is similar to credit but the supplier retains ownership until full payment. Layaway allows reserving an item by making deposits until it's paid off without interest, and consignment involves a dealer selling goods for the supplier and only paying for what they sell.
Functions of retailing
Retailers provide outlets for manufacturers' products, hold stocks of goods to meet consumer demand, and make goods available to consumers in preferred quantities. They are located conveniently for consumers and provide advice, after-sales services, and feedback from consumers to manufacturers.

Fabular Frames and the Four Ratio Problem
Digital, interactive art showing the struggle of a society in providing for its present population while also saving planetary resources for future generations. Spread across several frames, the art is actually the rendering of real and speculative data. The stereographic projections change shape in response to prompts and provocations. Visitors interact with the model through speculative statements about how to increase savings across communities, regions, ecosystems and environments. Their fabulations combined with random noise, i.e. factors beyond control, have a dramatic effect on the societal transition. Things get better. Things get worse. The aim is to give visitors a new grasp and feel of the ongoing struggles in democracies around the world.
Stunning art in the small multiples format brings out the spatiotemporal nature of societal transitions, against backdrop issues such as energy, housing, waste, farmland and forest. In each frame we see hopeful and frightful interplays between spending and saving. Problems emerge when one of the two parts of the existential anaglyph rapidly shrinks like Arctic ice, as factors cross thresholds. Ecological wealth and intergenerational equity areFour at stake. Not enough spending could mean economic stress, social unrest and political conflict. Not enough saving and there will be climate breakdown and ‘bankruptcy’. So where does speculative design start and the gambling and betting end? Behind each fabular frame is a four ratio problem. Each ratio reflects the level of sacrifice and self-restraint a society is willing to accept, against promises of prosperity and freedom. Some values seem to stabilise a frame while others cause collapse. Get the ratios right and we can have it all. Get them wrong and things get more desperate.

Exchange rate regimes
- 1. Types of Exchange Rate Regimes/Systems Prepared by Sandrea Butcher
- 2. Examples of exchange rates in the past • Barbados $2.00 = US $1 or Barbados $1.00 = US $0.50 • Trinidad and Tobago $6.00 = US $1 or Trinidad and Tobago $1.00 = US $0.167 • Guyana $200 = US $1 or Guyana $1.00 = US $0.005 • Jamaican $100 = US $1 or Jamaican $1.00 = US $0.01 • Eastern Caribbean $2.70 = US $1 or Eastern Caribbean $1.00 = US $0.37 • Cayman $1.25 = US $1 or Cayman $1.00 = US $0.80 • Haiti $40.35 = US $1 or Haiti $1.00 = US $0.0248 • Bermuda $1 = US $1 or Bermuda $1 = US $1
- 3. What is an exchange rate Regime? • This is a system that determines the value of a domestic currency in terms of foreign currencies. • There are THREE types of regimes. Shall we dance?
- 4. Floating • Under this system, the exchange rate between domestic currency and the foreign currency is determined by the demand and supply in the foreign exchange market. • The Jamaican dollar floats.
- 5. • Demand for foreign currency • This arises whenever there is a need to: • import goods from foreign firms • make investments abroad • repayment of foreign debt. • Supply of foreign currency • This arises whenever : • Foreigners purchase a country’s products • foreigners make investments in the country • Borrowing from foreigners
- 6. Fixed (or pegged) • A fixed exchange rate, sometimes called a pegged exchange rate exists when the government ties the country’s currency to a single currency or to a basket of other currencies. • The Central Bank intervenes in the foreign exchange market to maintain the peg. • The OECS dollar is pegged to the US dollar at the rate EC$2.70=US$1
- 7. Managed float • Under this system the government sets a range within which the currency is allowed to float. • Trinidad and Tobago have a managed float regime to the US dollar.
- 8. Eh, should we adjust the exchange rate? It dropping Not yet it hasn’t reached the minimum rate yet!
