A Model of Foreign Exchange Rate Indetermination

Discussion Papers in Economics at the University of Washington from Department of Economics at the University of Washington

Abstract: Economic agents undertake actions to protect themselves from sort-run impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations: Nominal goods prices are set in consumer' currencies and firms hedge foreign exchange risk. A model is presented here which shows that these features of the economy can lead to inderminacy in the nominal exchange rate in the short run.
