TITLE: Forecasting the dollar using capital flow data

ABSTRACT:

One of the key factors for understanding exchange rates is that of capital flows. If a country experiences large capital inflows it helps to support its currency, whilst large outflows will weaken it. In order to forecast currency moves, we need to be able to forecast these underlying capital flows in a timely way. In this webinar, Jens will discuss how capital flow data can be used to forecast the dollar, in particular using high frequency estimates of these capital flows from Exante Data.
