Which one of the following statements is correct about the exchange rates?
A country with high inflation may see its currency to appreciate according to the asset market
approach.
Current interest rates are is=1% and iç-3.5% and they will stay constant for many years. We would
expect the Euro to appreciate against dollar according to the uncovered interest rate parity.
When the central bank of Australia raises interest rate to a level that is more than all traders
expected, i.e. an unexpected rise in interest rate, the Australian dollar will depreciate.
O The European Central Bank announces to increase interest rate by 0.1%. The market consensus was
0.2% increase before the announcement. Upon the news, we would see euro to appreciate.
Price of currency futures(or forwards) will be slightly lower than the spot exchange rate at maturity.
