Tiivistelmä: | The paper proposes a new credibility indicator for the EMS based on the realignment expectations calculated using the inferred probabilities derived from the estimation of a Markov-switching regimes model. This indicator avoids most of the problems presented by the so-called 'drift adjusted method' and, especially it accounts, in a natural manner, for 'ex-ante' expectations instead of using 'ex-post' realignment times in order to deal with the jumps in the exchange rates. The periods of high probability of realignment match very closely the crisis of the EMS. |
