Forecasting EUR/PLN Exchange Rate: the Role of Purchasing Power Parity Hypothesis in ESTVEC Models
Journal Title: Dynamic Econometric Models - Year 2017, Vol 17, Issue
Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to verify strong-form purchasing power parity (PPP) of EUR/PLN within a class of smooth transition vector error correction models (ESTVECM). Empirical importance of exponential smooth transition functions is confronted with the linear error-correction mechanism. A class of competing models for recursive samples are compared by the likelihood ratio test, information criteria, and out of sample forecast accuracy measures.
