Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
That international monetary and financial arrangements adjust to unforeseen economic and political developments is clear from history. The predictability of these adjustments is not, however, always clear: The question of whether we can rely on history to generate forecasts is ever-present. As a result, developing the methodology to understand the adjustments and assembling the quantitative evidence of their importance is relevant for assessing risks and developing alternative financial management strategies. The overarching question is to what extent economic relations are autonomous—that is, invariant to unforeseen developments. Such evidence is also relevant to the academic community, to policymakers, and to professional practitioners. This Special Issue of the JRFM is seeking papers assessing the quantitative importance of changes in the character of international interdependencies in response to unforeseen developments.
The questions of interest include:
- What explains the 25% decline in the aggregate of notional values of OTC derivatives since 2013 reported by the BIS?
- Has the responsiveness of U.S. interest rates to changes in the foreign demand for U.S. Treasury Securities been affected by the financial crisis of 2008?
- Conventional and unconventional international spillovers of monetary policy
- What factors may account for recent declines in the neutral interest rates across industrial countries?
- Monetary policies
- Central bank management of MBS holdings and reinvestment
- Forward guidance
- Negative interest rates
- Exit strategies
- International interdependency of monetary policy rules
- Global macro prudential monetary policies
- What explains international reserves holdings of emerging market economics?
- Will the RMB displace the Japanese Yen and the British Pound Sterling as reserve currencies? If so, when?
- The relation between commodity prices and exchange rates: causal or casual?
- What are the implications of climate changes for modeling financial risks and financial management?
Accepted papers will receive a 35% discount relative to the Journal’s publication fee.
