	interest rate parity
		The condition implies that the expected depreciation of a currency is equal to the differential between domestic and foreign interest rates:
		This implication is confirmed by the data: countries with high inflation have, on average, higher nominal interest rates than countries with lower inflation and, on average, the currencies of such high inflation countries tend to depreciate at a rate close to the interest rate (or inflation) differential relative to low inflation countries.
		In this case, we would expect that high domestic interest rates will be associated with an appreciating currency (as the high interest rates lead to an inflow of capital to the high yielding country).

		Under perfect capital mobility, the interest parity condition must hold: i = i* + (E(e)-E)/E. Each of the variables on the right hand side is fixed or exogenous under fixed exchange rates, so the domestic interest rate is determined and the government is not free to choose it.
		A depreciation of the currency is consistent with a fall in the interest rate (the arbitrage equation is downward sloping).
		This means higher output, higher interest rates (because the money supply is fixed, so interest rates must increase to make people happy with their existing cash holdings but more income), thus an appreciation (higher interest rates here, so the country must have a depreciation by tomorrow – this implies an appreciation today).

	Interest Rates, Carry Trades, and Exchange Rate Movements (2006-31, 11/17/2006) (Site not responding. Last check: )
		According to an equilibrium condition of international financial markets, called "covered interest parity," the forward premium of one currency relative to another is equal to the interest rate differential between them.
		According to another equilibrium condition of international financial markets called the "uncovered interest parity," the difference in interest rates between the two countries simply reflects the rate at which investors expect the high-interest-rate currency to depreciate against the low-interest-rate currency.
		The uncovered interest parity condition implies, indeed, that investors should expect to receive no profits, as they should expect the return from lending in the high-interest-rate currency to be worth ultimately as much as the cost of borrowing in the low-interest-rate currency.

	Exchange Rate Misconceptions: 2001 to 2005. By Ryan Pitylak
		Despite the drastic decline in interest rates during 2001, neither did forward exchange rates appreciate, nor did foreign interest rates decline enough to explain the combination of the dollar appreciation and the United States interest rate decreases during that period, under the interest parity condition.
		When the condition that the perfect substitutability of assets is relaxed for the interest parity condition, an exchange rate appreciation in conjunction with declining interest rates is possible, as was the case in 2001.
		This condition is replaced with the assumption of imperfect substitutability of foreign and domestic assets (Blancard, Giavazzi, and Sa 2005).

	Interest Rate Parity In Times Of Turbulence: The Issue Revisited
		INTEREST RATE PARITY IN TIMES OF TURBULENCE: THE ISSUE REVISITED Nada Boulos and Peggy E. Swanson Abstract Empirical studies on covered interest arbitrage suggest that the interest rate parity condition does not always hold during times of turbulence in the foreign exchange markets, implying market inefficiency.
		Covered interest parity states that the interest differential between two assets which are identical in every respect except for currency of denomination should be equal to the forward premium or discount in the forward foreign exchange market.
		Clinton's study (1988), based on the bounds for deviations from interest parity developed by Deardorff (one-way arbitrage) and Callier (covered arbitrage), defined the maximum limits of deviations from parity that can be explained by transactions costs when foreign exchange costs are swap costs.

	The Foreign Exchange Market
		Interest parity and efficient markets require that forward exchange rates equal the expected future spot rates on the dates at which the forward contracts mature.
		The interest parity condition, as we have defined it, says nothing about the relationship between the forward and expected future spot exchange rates.
		Uncovered Interest Parity --- which says that the nominal interest rate differential will equal the expected rate of change in the exchange rate (and hence that both the political and foreign exchange risk premia, PRP and FXRP, are zero).

	Lecture 9 Notes
		Uncovered interest parity says that a currency is expected to appreciate by the percentage point difference between the foreign interest rate and the domestic interest rate.
		Suppose the U.S. interest rate is 6% and the interest rate on a comparable Japanese security is 8%, then the dollar is expected to rise 2% against the yen.
		For the previous example, covered inte r est parity would say that the dollar's value against the yen in the forward market is 2% higher than the value in the spot market.

	Interest Rate Parity
		Rearranging the expression above and simplifying, we can rewrite the uncovered interest parity condition as: i = if - [E(et+1) - et] / et = if - deexp/e Where deexp/e is the expected rate of change in the exchange rate.
		In the above example, if the expected DM exchange rate was 1.96, then the US interest rate equals the German interest rate less the expected rate of change of the exchange rate: 8% = 6% - [1.96 - 2]/2.
		If the condition holds, a x% difference between the interest rate at home and abroad must imply that investors expect that the domestic currency will depreciate by x%.

	Notes on Mishkin Chapter 7 (Econ 353, Tesfatsion)
		in (8) by expression (10), and recalling that the nominal interest rate is given by the sum of the real interest rate and the expected inflation rate, one obtains the desired nominal form (9) for the interest parity condition.
		In short, under conditions in which purchasing power parity and interest parity both hold over time, any difference in nominal interest rates between the HC and ROW will be equal to the difference in their expected inflation rates because the real interest rates in the HC and in ROW will be the same.
		Short-Term: The Interest Parity condition (9) predicts that any change in one EMU member country's interest rate relative to another member country's interest rate can be expected to put pressure on the exchange rate between the two countries, fixed under the EMU agreement, until complete phase-out of national currencies occurs in June 2002.

	Open economy macroeconomics, Henry Thompson
		Expected inflation and real interest rates are critical variables for consumers and firms in macro models but there is no easy established way to measure expected inflation.
		The home nominal interest rate is lower than the foreign nominal interest rate if home expected inflation is less than foreign expected inflation, π < π*.
		The exchange rate is assumed to stay fixed and the interest rate returns to the world level.

	International Economics: Homework
		We have developed a simple exchange rate "overshooting" model, which uses the uncovered interest parity relation to explain exchange rates in the short run and the monetary approach to explain exchange rates in the long run.
		The low domestic interest rate must be offset by expected appreciation of the dollar, which means that the spot rate must depreciate past `E_{LR}` (so that it is expected to appreciate over time).
		Absolute purchasing power parity is an extreme parity condition that is implied by commodity price parity (international law of one price) for all commodities and identical construction of the foreign and domestic price indices.

	"Swap" Covered Interest Parity in Long-Date Capital Markets
		Using the currency swap as the forward-exchange risk hedge, the covered interest parity condition in the long-date capital markets is evaluated.
		Of interest is the extent to which deviations from parity can be attributed to transactions costs.
		The empirical conclusions presented in the paper suggest that, although (on average) transactions costs account for deviations from parity, net deviations (in excess of transactions costs) are neither rare nor short-lived.

	Forward Contract as supplied by EagleTraders.com
		In the foreign exchange market, the forward price and the spot price are linked by the interest parity condition.
		If, for example, the real foreign interest rate is 10 percent and the real domestic rate is 8 percent, the interest parity condition implies that the forward rate will be 2 percentage points higher than the spot rate.

	Notes on Mishkin Chapter 19 (Econ 353, Tesfatsion)
		Relation (9) is the form of the interest parity condition given in Mishkin (Chapter 19, equation (2), page 162).
		Note: The Interest Parity condition (9) predicts that the ECB will have to match one-for-one any changes in the U.S. interest rate by the Fed in order to avoid changes in the current dollar-euro exchange rate as well as the expected future dollar-euro exchange rate.
		The inability of the national central banks of euro area member countries to freely change regional interest rates in response to regional demand or supply shocks could result in greater fluctuations in regional income and employment.

		The interest parity condition states that in an open economy, an interest rate above the world parity should lead speculators to expect a currency DEPRECIATION, not appreciation.
		This is because the interest parity condition states however that this appreciation TODAY will involve a greater depreciation (than before the ER change) in the American ER, or appreciation in the German ER, over the next year assuming that the EXPECTED ER in a year’s time remains constant.

	Uncovered Interest Parity: A Further Reconsideration
		This paper reexamines the uncovered interest parity condition within the context of a structural view of real exchange rate determination that emphasizes the real exchange rate as the relative price of domestic in terms of foreign output.
		Because structural shocks to the real exchange rate are unpredictable, forward discounts need not predict actual future nominal exchange rate movements with any reliability, except in cases where there are continuing long-term differences in countries' inflation rates.
		Once the integrated nature of the world capital market is taken into account, it turns out that governments can and probably do smooth price levels, nominal exchange rates and possibly also domestic/foreign interest rate differentials, but have no power to manipulate any of these variables independently of the others.
