摘要
Does household heterogeneity matter for exchange rate determination? This paper tests Kocherlakota and Pistaferri's (2007) prominent heterogeneous agent model, in which the real exchange rate perfectly tracks relative domestic/foreign moments of cross-household consumption distributions. The evidence presented here indicates that the real exchange rate is disconnected from relative cross-household consumption moments. (C) 2021 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
