Exchange Rates and the Relative Inflation: Equilibrium Levels and Currency «Anomalies»
Abstract
The paper refers to the features of exchange rates dynamics at the global and emerging (Russian) currency markets (specifically, US dollar-Euro, US dollar-ruble rates) and their medium term fluctuations. The authors consider the ratios between nominal and real (relative inflation-adjusted) exchange rates in the context of relative purchasing power parity concept. Degrees of US dollar over and undervaluation against the German mark, Euro, Russian ruble in different time periods are measured. Causes of nominal dollar rate deviations from the equilibrium level (so called “currency anomalies”) were interpreted as connected, among all, with the Government interference in the market mechanism.
