The Monetary Approach uses two dynamics to determine an exchange rate, the price dynamics and the interest rates dynamics. A change in the domestic money supply leads to a change in the level of prices and a change in the level of prices leads to a change in the exchange rate. THE MONETARY APPROACH TO EXCHANGE RATE DETERMINATION In this section we describe the main features of the monetary approach to exchange rate determina-tion in its flexible-price formulation (Frenkel, 1976; Mussa, 1976, 1979). 1 The monetary approach starts from the defini-tion of the exchange rate as the relative price of two Monetary approach to the determination of exchange rates. PPP represents the classical monetary case, where national price levels are linked by the nominal exchange rate. The Monetary Model seeks to explain movement of the exchange rate in relation to relative money supplies while assuming that non-money assets are perfect substitutes. 3 Common Ways to Forecast Currency Exchange Rates. in order to forecast the direction of exchange rates. The rationale behind this approach is based on the idea that a strong economic

This theoretical vacuum, induced primarily The Monetary Approach uses two dynamics to determine an exchange rate, the price dynamics and the interest rates dynamics.

The monetary approach to the balance of payments, exchange rates, and world inflation (Praeger studies in international monetary economics and finance) This paper reviews the monetary approach to exchange rate determination and gives a brief historical review on the demand for money used in this approach. Modern Monetary Theory or Modern Money Theory (MMT) is a heterodox macroeconomic theory that describes currency Virtually all central banks set an interest rate target, and conduct open market operations to ensure base interest rates
Conventionally, the monetary approach to exchange rate determination claims that devaluation of the currency will improve the trade balance. However, there have immerged facts which deify this claim. Findings as summarized in this paper, suggest that, the monetary approach is an inconsistent approach. In the monetary approach, the exchange rate is determined directly by the relative price level via purchasing power parity (PPP). We use (3.2) and (3.6) to write the crude monetary
