Global Value Chains and Effective Exchange Rates at the Country‐Sector Level
指出传统有效汇率模型未考虑全球价值链的兴起,并开发了一个新框架来计算国家和部门层面的实际有效汇率,利用跨国投入产出表分析新指标的特性。
Abstract The real effective exchange rate (REER) is one of the most cited statistics in open‐economy macroeconomics. We show that the models used to compute these numbers are not rich enough to allow for the rising importance of global value chains. Moreover, because different sectors within a country participate in international production sharing at different stages, sector‐level variations are also important for determining competitiveness. Incorporating these features, we develop a framework to compute REER at both the sector and country level and apply it on intercountry input‐output tables to study the properties of the new measures.
