摘要
In this paper we evaluate Uncovered Interest Rate Parity in the ERM by testing market efficiency and zero risk premia in a general asset pricing framework. The overidentifying conditions derived from the model are not rejected but we strongly reject risk neutrality. Nevertheless, estimated risk premia between ERM currencies are moderate to low. Therefore, due to the diversifiability of foreign exchange risk, the standard UIP relation between exchange rates and interest rates is a reasonable approximation within the ERM. (JEL F31, G12, G15).
