Exchange rate determination and equity prices: Evidence from the UK

Ioannis Litsios

The Journal of Economic Asymmetries, 2013, vol. 10, issue 2, 115-128

Abstract: This paper develops a model of optimal choice over an array of different assets, including domestic and foreign bonds, domestic and foreign equities, and domestic and foreign real money balances, with a view to examine whether stock markets have an effect on the exchange rate in the long-run. The model is tested using data from the UK and the USA. Evidence suggests that the UK stock market has a significant effect on the value of the pound's sterling nominal effective exchange rate in the long-run over the period 1982 to 2011.
