HIGH‐FREQUENCY ANALYSIS OF FOREIGN EXCHANGE INTERVENTIONS: WHAT DO WE LEARN?
通过高频数据分析,发现央行干预确实能按预期方向影响汇率,但短期会增加波动,长期可降低波动;干预成功需满足协调、顺应市场等条件。
Abstract The high‐frequency analysis of foreign exchange dynamics is helpful in order to better identify the impact of central bank interventions. Evidence robustly shows that interventions do indeed move the exchange rate level in the desired direction. Interventions increase volatility in the short run as they are regarded as information; but they can reduce volatility overall. Ways of transmission may reach beyond the signalling channel and also include the portfolio balance and a damping channel. Finally, interventions are more successful if they obey certain conditions, such as being coordinated among central banks and going with the market and fundamentals.
