| Summary: | This academic project examined the Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) model and the Monetary model for the Singapore-US exchange rate. Results of the cointegration analysis reveal that the exchange rate is in agreement with the relative PPP. However, there are serious doubts on the monetary model's ability to explain the movements of the Singapore-US exchange rate. Error correction models for both PPP and monetary models are presented to take into consideration of the short-run dynamics in modelling exchange rates. |
