Unconventional monetary policy and the dollar–euro exchange rate: further evidence from event studies

Simon Sosvilla-Rivero and Natalia Fernández-Fernández

Applied Economics Letters, 2016, vol. 23, issue 12, 835-839

Abstract: New evidence is presented on the impact on the US dollar–euro (USD–EUR) exchange rate of the unconventional monetary policy conducted by the US Federal Reserve (FED) and the European Central Bank (ECB). To that end, we employ an event study approach using daily the USD–EUR exchange rate for the period from 2 January 2007 to 31 January 2015. Our results indicate that the announcement and subsequent implementation of such measures by the ECB would have caused in general an appreciation of the dollar, while those by the FED would have caused a depreciation of the dollar.
