This paper reviews how the changing financial environment in Korea has affected the conduct of monetary policy and examines the extent to which the Bank of Korea now uses the short-term interest rate rather than money aggregates as an operating target.

this study investigates the effects of  macroeconomic variables and their role in development of foreign exchange market. the foreign exchange market is the mechanism by which a person of firm transfers purchasing power form one country to another, obtains or provides credit for international trade transactions, and minimizes exposure to foreign exchange risk. the foreign exchange transaction i...

By applying knowledge of the "turn-of-the-month" effect investors will improve the risk-adjusted performance of their retirement accounts by using a simple and easily implemented "switching" strategy. Our exploitation of the turn-of-the-month anomaly achieves a 17. 7 percent average annual rate of return by switching between a money market account and a broad market indexed stock account. This ...

The interest rate and exchange rate fluctuations have very significant impacts on the domestic economy and capital market development. Adopted from the traditional theory such as the interest rate parity, capital flow theory and the classical theory of IS-LM model, the paper does an in-depth theoretical and empirical research and analysis on the interaction and complex relationship among the th...

This paper proposes a general equilibrium model that aims at quantifying the distributive effects of anticipated inflation in an incomplete market economy with heterogeneous agents. Based on empirical evidence, this paper assumes a fixed cost to participate in financial markets, which in equilibrium generates a theory of money. Money is a return dominated asset, but also a costless mean to smoo...

Should the inflation rate be higher in emerging market economies with less developed financial markets than in advanced economies, as is currently observed? To answer these questions we set up an incomplete markets model in which households choose portfolios ...
