Stabilization of the Canadian Dollar: 1975-1986

Llad Phillips and John Pippenger

Canadian Journal of Economics, 1993, vol. 26, issue 2, 416-46

Abstract: The authors extend their earlier work on Canadian intervention in the foreign-exchange market in three ways: (1) use daily data from 1975 to 1986 to see if results for the 1950s hold during the current float; (2) extend their original model to include both stock and flow versions of the foreign-exchange market; and (3) compare estimates using published Canadian holdings of U.S. dollars to estimates using actual intervention, which is confidential. Canadian authorities continue to lean against the wind, but their lagged response is longer and more variable. Published data effectively reflect intervention.
