چکیده انگلیسی
This paper considers testing the mean reversion of the forward premium in a nonlinear framework. In contrast to previous studies, we consider a novel approach that allows for testing for a unit root in the forward premium while explicitly allowing for nonlinearity in the data. Within this approach, we employ bootstrap methods based on threshold autoregressive (TAR) models to investigate whether the 1- and 3-month forward premia for six industrialized countries are mean-reverting. Overall, we are able to reject the null hypotheses of linearity and nonstationarity indicating nonlinear mean reversion. Furthermore, large deviations of the forward premium from its equilibrium band are found to have faster speed of mean reversion than small deviations, which are strongly persistent. In all, the results support the view that the forward premium exhibits mean reversion, but in a special manner not captured by the usual linear tests. Finally, the results have important implications for foreign exchange market efficiency under risk aversion.
