Dollar and Exports
研究发现美元升值会收紧美元信贷条件,导致依赖美元银行信贷的出口商信贷减少、出口放缓,揭示了美元在金融全球化与国际贸易互动中的新传导渠道。
Abstract The strength of the U.S. dollar has attributes of a barometer of dollar credit conditions, with a stronger dollar associated with tighter dollar credit conditions. We find that following dollar appreciation, exporters that are more reliant on dollar-funded bank credit suffer a greater decline in credit and slowdown in exports, including those exporting to the United States. Our findings shed light on the role of the U.S. dollar in the interaction between financial globalization and international trade and show a novel channel of exchange rate transmission that goes in the opposite direction to the competitiveness channel.
