1.0 Abstract
This paper prefers theoretical and empirical evidence that exchange rate has negative impact on international trade or export. In this paper, we focus on export of Australian country. We also, offer a simple model of domestic and foreign asset demand to determine the exchange rate of home country. From this model, we can see the result, either the exchange rate are appreciate or depreciate in value. We use annual data from world databank (2012) over the period 1980 to 2012 for this study. We also use Ordinary Least Square (OLS) to fine the relationship between real exchange rate and export trade. The result shows that export are negatively influence by exchange rate volatility. This result gives a significant result and supported by the theory.
2.0 Introduction
Since the breakdown of the Bretton Woods system of fixed exchange rates, both real and nominal exchange rates have fluctuated widely. Under this system, each country’s central bank was obligated to intervene in the foreign exchange market to keep the exchange rate in a narrow band around the previously agree rate. This Bretton Woods system will encourage more open trade, finance and investment and lead to a period of rapid economic growth after World War 2.
