Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the factors that affect exchange rate fluctuations and provide help for investors to make investment decisions in the face of uncertainty in the exchange rate market. Comparing with the Conventional SUR model, the Student-t copula SUR is applied in this study. The results show that the interest rate is negative related to the fluctuation of exchange rate for both Thailand and Japan. And the exchange rate of both countries is positively influenced by inflation rate. The empirical result also shows that the current account balance is considered weak evidence affecting the change of exchange rate. And the Market speculation is decisively affecting the fluctuation of exchange rate, while it is negatively affecting for Thailand but positively affecting for Japan.
