"ABSTRAKWe offer new insights on the dynamics of the exchange rate interest rate differential for the case of G7 economies. We show that the nexus is better considered using anasymmetric model, as suggested by a host of previous studies. In addition, we find therole of accounting for structural breaks to be prominent. We also show differences in thenexus between euro and non-euro G7 countries, suggesting heterogeneous monetarypolicies. Thus, we document the strongest evidence for the sticky price hypothesis inJapan and lesser evidence in the euro countries and the United Kingdom, with Canadaconsistently revealing evidence for the flexible price hypothesis."

"Convergence in prices or returns of assets with similar characteristics indicates that the financialmarket is integrated with regional markets. This paper is the first that test of the movements ofinterest rates in ASEAN banking sector for the period 1990 - 2012. The empirical analysis is basedon a yearly panel of commercial bank interest rate data from 5 ASEAN countries, namely, Indonesia,Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore and Thailand. We assessed the degree and speed of interest rateconvergence using beta and sigma convergence method. The findings show that the difference andthe dispersion in the interbank rates have reduced since the Asian financial crisis and this trend hasbecome stronger after the Global financial crisis. The findings of this study confirm that interest ratesin the ASEAN banking sector are converging. This provides evidence that the ASEAN banking sectoris ready for financial integration."

"Penelitian ini menganalisa determinan pilihan rezim nilai tukar dengan menggunakan variabel Optimum Currency Area, Political Economy, dan krisis selama periode 1991-2008. Dengan menggunakan metode probit cross-countries ditemukan bahwa terdapat perbedaan antara driving variables di dunia, negara maju dan negara berkembang. Untuk negara-negara di dunia, tingkat keterbukaan, economic development, financial development, inflasi, reserve dan tingkat kediktatoran signifikan sementara hasil regresi untuk negara berkembang menunjukkan bahwa variabel tingkat keterbukaan negara, financial development, inflasi, reserve dan tingkat kediktatoran berpengaruh secara signifikan dalam pemilihan rezim nilai tukar negara. Hasil yang jauh berbeda didapat dari hasil regresi negara maju. Pada estimasi ini, hanya economic development, financial development dan kekuatan kelompok produser sektor tradable yang secara signifikan mempengaruhi pemilihan rezim nilai tukar.

"This study analyze the influence of non-deliverable forward (NDF) and the spot rate of USD/IDR against Bank Indonesia reference rate, Jakarta Interbank Spot Dollar Rate (JISDOR). NDF which came earlier than JISDOR is used by the market participant as the reference rate. The simple method of NDF determination had a great impact on the volatility of the rupiah currency, pushing the Bank Indonesia to issue its own reference currency. JISDOR is an indication of the rates issued by Bank Indonesia as the reference rate for the foreign exchange market in domestic and overseas. The method of creating the reference rate is by weighting the average rate of real transactions through a monitoring system which is managed by the central bank. However, the question arises: what should be done by the monetary authority when there is a party outside the jurisdiction issued the NDF rate as a benchmark that may affect the domestic exchange rate of rupiah in accordance with the desired agenda of the party. We use OLS and ARCH/GARCH to see if independent variables have an influence on dependent variable. Granger Causality test is also used to observe whether there are any relations among the variables."
