Effect of Central Bank Intervention in Estimating Exchange Rate Exposure: Evidence from an Emerging Market:

23 Feb 2018-Journal of Emerging Market Finance (SAGE Publications)-Vol. 17, Iss: 1, pp 60-95
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the relationship between the value of the firm and unanticipated changes in exchange rate and found that the intervention by central bank has a major impact on the level of Indian firms' exchange rate exposure.
Abstract: This study examines the relationship between the value of the firm and unanticipated changes in exchange rate. Using a sample of 651 Indian firms over the period from 2001 to 2013, this study finds that unanticipated changes in exchange rates are more appropriate than actual changes to discover statistically significant and economically important exchange rate exposure. Using a vector error correction model (VECM) to generate unanticipated exchange rate changes, this study provides new evidence that the intervention by central bank has a major impact on the level of Indian firms’ exchange rate exposure.

TL;DR: In this article, a simple method of calculating a heteroskedasticity and autocorrelation consistent covariance matrix that is positive semi-definite by construction is described.
Abstract: This paper describes a simple method of calculating a heteroskedasticity and autocorrelation consistent covariance matrix that is positive semi-definite by construction. It also establishes consistency of the estimated covariance matrix under fairly general conditions.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examine the different methods used in the literature and explain when the different approaches yield the same (and correct) standard errors and when they diverge, and give researchers guidance for their use.
Abstract: In both corporate finance and asset pricing empirical work, researchers are often confronted with panel data. In these data sets, the residuals may be correlated across firms and across time, and OLS standard errors can be biased. Historically, the two literatures have used different solutions to this problem. Corporate finance has relied on clustered standard errors, while asset pricing has used the Fama-MacBeth procedure to estimate standard errors. This paper examines the different methods used in the literature and explains when the different methods yield the same (and correct) standard errors and when they diverge. The intent is to provide intuition as to why the different approaches sometimes give different answers and give researchers guidance for their use.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the exposure of U.S multinationals to foreign currency risk and found that the relationship between stock returns and exchange rates differs systematically across multinationals.
Abstract: This article examines the exposure of U.S multinationals to foreign currency risk. Evidence is presented that the relationship between stock returns and exchange rates differs systematically across multinationals. Given these results, the study focuses on the determinants of exchange-rate exposure. The comovements between stock returns and the value of the dollar is found to be positively related to the percentage of foreign operations of U.S. multinationals.
