Spot Rates & Forward Rates 即期汇率与远期汇率 • Spot Exchange Rates: • Exchange rates governing such “on-the-spot” trading. (two days after a deal is struck) • Forward Exchange Rates: • Exchange rates deals sometimes specify a value date farther away than 2days-- 30days , 90days,180days,or even several years.
Foreign Exchange Swaps • Foreign Exchange Swaps: • a spot sale of a currency combined with a forward repurchase of the currency

Exchange Rate & Asset Returns • Rate of return: The percentage increase in value it offers over some period. • Invest 100$ to buy a share of stock and the dividend is 1$. • If the price rise to 109 $ or drop to 89 $. • (109 +1)/100 –1 = 10% • (89 + 1)/100 –1 = – 10% • Expected rate of return (P.334)
Equilibrium in the FX Market : The basic equilibrium condition Interest Parity 利息平价 The foreign exchange market is in equilibrium when deposits of all currencies offer the same expected rate of return.

R$ = R€+(Ee$/€-E$/€)/E$/€ ( interest parity condition ) • The expected rate of return on one asset must equal that of the other asset when measured in the same currency.

Expected dollar return on euro deposits E$/€ How changes in E affect expected returns (I) R$= R€ + (Ee$/€- E$/€)/ E$/€ R€ + (Ee$/€/ E$/€ -1) current depreciation R$> R€ + (Ee$/€- E$/€)/ E$/€ capital inflow Dollar appreciates. R$= R€ + (Ee$/€- E$/€)/ E$/€ Expected dollar return Interest parity condition holds again.
How changes in E affect expected returns (II) = R€ + (Ee$/€/ E$/€ - 1) R$ > Other things equal , depreciation of a country’s currency today lowers the expected domestic currency return on foreign currency deposits. = R€ + (Ee$/€/ E$/€ - 1) R$ < Other things equal , appreciation of a country’s currency today raises the expected domestic currency return on foreign currency deposits.
How changes in E affect expected returns (III) With fixed Ee$/€ and R€, the relation between today’s E$/€ and the expected dollar return on euro deposits defines a download-sloping schedule.
How changes in E affect expected returns (IV) Given Ee$/€ and R€ , an appreciation of the dollar against the euro deposits, measured in terms of dollars, and vice versa.
The Equilibrium Exchange Rate R$= R€ + (Ee$/€- E$/€)/ E$/€ Equilibrium in the FX market is at point 1, where the expected dollar return on dollar and euro deposits are equal.
Interest Rates, Expectations & Equilibrium (I) The Effect of Changing Interest Rates on the Current Exchange Rate Conclusion: All else equal, an increase in the interest paid on deposits of a currency causes that currency to appreciate against foreign currency, and vice versa.
