Abstract

The paper empirically investigates the validity of Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) hypothesis for India with its 20 major trading partners using the Fourier non-linear quantile unit root (FNQKS) test. The study uses daily data for the period 1st January 2020–2nd February 2022. FNQKS test supports PPP in 15 out of 20 trading partners of India. The validity of PPP indicates that it is impossible to obtain unbounded gains from arbitrage in these trading partners because of the adjustment process even in the presence of heavy-tailed distributions, mean breaks, and non-linearity. It also indicates that the impact of shocks on the exchange rates is transitory. Therefore, no interventions in these foreign exchange markets need to be made by the relevant authorities. Thus, non-normal distributions, structural breaks, and non-linear mean reversion appear to be key features for adjustment process of exchange rates of these 15 trading partners.

利用傅立叶非线性量子单位根检验考察印度主要汇率的动态变化
本文采用傅立叶非线性量子单位根(FNQKS)检验法,对印度与其 20 个主要贸易伙伴的购买力平价(PPP)假设的有效性进行了实证研究。研究使用的是 2020 年 1 月 1 日至 2022 年 2 月 2 日期间的每日数据。傅立叶非线性量子单位根检验支持印度 20 个贸易伙伴中 15 个国家的购买力平价。购买力平价的有效性表明,在这些贸易伙伴国,即使存在重尾分布、均值断裂和非线性,也不可能从套利中获得无限制的收益,因为存在调整过程。这也表明,冲击对汇率的影响是短暂的。因此,有关当局无需对这些外汇市场进行干预。因此,非正态分布、结构性断裂和非线性均值回归似乎是这 15 个贸易伙伴国汇率调整过程的主要特征。

期刊介绍: The current remarkable growth in the Asia-Pacific financial markets is certain to continue. These markets are expected to play a further important role in the world capital markets for investment and risk management. In accordance with this development, Asia-Pacific Financial Markets (formerly Financial Engineering and the Japanese Markets), the official journal of the Japanese Association of Financial Econometrics and Engineering (JAFEE), is expected to provide an international forum for researchers and practitioners in academia, industry, and government, who engage in empirical and/or theoretical research into the financial markets. We invite submission of quality papers on all aspects of finance and financial engineering. Here we interpret the term ''financial engineering'' broadly enough to cover such topics as financial time series, portfolio analysis, global asset allocation, trading strategy for investment, optimization methods, macro monetary economic analysis and pricing models for various financial assets including derivatives We stress that purely theoretical papers, as well as empirical studies that use Asia-Pacific market data, are welcome. Officially cited as: Asia-Pac Financ Markets
