Abstract: | The note presents empirical evidence concerning the interpretation of the bad performance of the expectations theory for the US interest rates. The authors analyse one- and three-month Euro interest rates for 8 currencies, using monthly data for the 80's. The analysis indicates that the expectation theory works reasonably well for most currencies analysed in this note. Some of them are characterized by a low degree of co-movement of Euro and domestic interest rates (Yen, Peseta and Lira), whereas this is not true for the others (Pound Sterling, Swedish Krone and Canadian Dollar). |
