Abstract: This article examines the main determinants of the Russian real effective exchange rate (REX) movements over the transition period started in the early 1990s. To understand the forces that drive exchange rate dynamics, five strands of the empirical literature have been combined ina time series dimension. The results suggest a positive long-run cointegration relationship between the REX, oil price, productivity and government financial position and a negative relation with international reserves. Managing international reserves and fiscal policies have therefore, the effect of mitigating the impact of oil/terms of trade and productivity shocks on the REX.
