| Tiivistelmä: | This paper examines the impact that a currency target zone has on short-term interest rates. For a number of countries in the European Monetary System, the authors characterize the short rate using a regime-switching model that allows for a differently parameterized mean-reverting square-root process in each regime. The authors find that the volatility, the level, and the speed-of-adjustment are all higher in the regime that is operative during speculative attacks and currency crises. |
