Using daily data of oil prices and exchange rates of 14 countries for the period January 1999 to November 2014, this study examines the dynamic correlation between oil prices and exchange rates using the DCC-GARCH model. The results show the significantly negative correlation between oil prices and exchange rates over the period. These results imply that the increase of oil price coincides with US dollar depreciation and vice versa. This correlation strengthens in a negative direction during periods of financial crisis while it shifts to an upward trend after the financial crisis period.

This book examines the dynamic relationship and volatility spillovers between crude oil prices, exchange rates and stock markets of emerging economies. Unfortunately very little research has been conducted to analyze the volatility spillovers and dynamic relationship between crude oil prices, exchange rates and stock markets of India.

Present paper investigates the relationship among oil prices and exchange rates in Indian market. Present paper uses two econometrics tools of dependence to establish co-movement amongst the variables viz. Johansen co-integration and Granger Causality tests to demonstrate that the foreign exchange value of the US dollar (Crude oil prices) has a substantial impact on the prices of crude oil (Exchange rate of US dollar) in long-term as well as short-term or not. The results evidenced that data is stationary at first difference order. However, Johansen co-integration suggests no co-integrating equation. It signifies the possibilities to take advantage from arbitrage activities in the long-run through diversification of the investment portfolios in these two non-integrated markets. Granger causality and Wald statistics evidences unidirectional causality flowing from exchange rate to oil prices but not vice-versa. Since exchange rate granger causes the oil prices, the participants in the foreign exchange market can use information of exchange rates to improve the forecast of crude oil prices. The results of present study have policy implications for oil importing countries to frame foreign exchange risk management, fiscal and monetary policies in such a way to control exchange rate induced pressures on crude oil prices as crude oil prices predominantly affect the emerging oil dependent industrialized economies like India.

This paper investigates the response of consumer price inflation to changes in domestic fuel prices, looking at the different categories of the overall consumer price index (CPI). We then combine household survey data with the CPI components to construct a CPI index for the poorest and richest income quintiles with the view to assess the distributional impact of the pass-through. To undertake this analysis, the paper provides an update to the Global Monthly Retail Fuel Price Database, expanding the product coverage to premium and regular fuels, the time dimension to December 2020, and the sample to 190 countries. Three key findings stand out. First, the response of inflation to gasoline price shocks is smaller, but more persistent and broad-based in developing economies than in advanced economies. Second, we show that past studies using crude oil prices instead of retail fuel prices to estimate the pass-through to inflation significantly underestimate it. Third, while the purchasing power of all households declines as fuel prices increase, the distributional impact is progressive. But the progressivity phases out within 6 months after the shock in advanced economies, whereas it persists beyond a year in developing countries.

United States monetary policy has traditionally been modeled under the assumption that the domestic economy is immune to international factors and exogenous shocks. Such an assumption is increasingly unrealistic in the age of integrated capital markets, tightened links between national economies, and reduced trading costs. International Dimensions of Monetary Policy brings together fresh research to address the repercussions of the continuing evolution toward globalization for the conduct of monetary policy. In this comprehensive book, the authors examine the real and potential effects of increased openness and exposure to international economic dynamics from a variety of perspectives. Their findings reveal that central banks continue to influence decisively domestic economic outcomes—even inflation—suggesting that international factors may have a limited role in national performance. International Dimensions of Monetary Policy will lead the way in analyzing monetary policy measures in complex economies.

The main finding of this paper is that the European Union (EU) countries fall into two broad groups according to the effects of monetary policy adjustments on economic activity. Estimates based on a vector autoregression model indicate that the full effects of a contractionary monetary shock on output in one group of EU countries (Austria, Belgium, Finland, Germany, Netherlands, and United Kingdom) take roughly twice as long to occur, but are almost twice as deep as in the other group (Denmark, France, Italy, Portugal, Spain, and Sweden). The paper discusses the implications of these results for the effective conduct of monetary policy in the euro area.

This paper examines the long run and short run dynamics among oil prices, exchange rates and stock prices in India (one of the fastest growing emerging markets in the world) over the most recent 15 year period 1997-2011. Using Johansen's Co integration test we find the existence of long run equilibrium relationship among oil market, foreign exchange market and stock market in India. The short term dynamics among the three markets are analyzed using Vector Autoregression (unrestricted as well as VECM), VAR causality/Block Exogeneity Wald test and Impulse response analysis. We find unidirectional causality from stock market to oil market. An impulse originating in foreign exchange market results in a profound drop in stock as well as oil prices and is statistically significant for about three weeks in oil market and two weeks in stock market. The domino effect of up-waves in stock market is positive for oil market and remains statistically significant for few weeks, while being of opposite tendency in foreign exchange market. The optimism of oil market bulls up stock market in India while creating bearish trends in foreign exchange market. An assessment of impulse response graphs in pre-crisis, during crisis and post crisis period exhibits that the riposte of all the variables to a shock generating from within stays for a relatively longer period during crisis as compared to pre and post crisis period. These results have wider implications for market integration, policy makers and investors at large. Since these markets are integrated rather than segmented, from the perspective of investments, risk reduction cannot be achieved in the long run by holding assets from these markets in the same portfolio. However diversification opportunities are not ruled out in the short run. Stock market turns out to be the leader in all the three markets especially after the recent financial crisis. Rapidly rising stock prices in India signal the expectation of higher economic growth ahead. If the stock prices get trapped in a bubble, however, oil prices will overshoot in relation to economic fundamentals.
