Macroeconomic fundamentals, forecast models, exchange rate, correlationAbstract
The exchange rate is influenced by multiple national and international macroeconomic factors, which generates high levels of uncertainty. The objective of this research is the construction of ARIMA-GARCH and ARIMAX-GARCH models as a tool for the forecast of the exchange rate in Colombia from the daily returns of the closing prices USD/COP and its analysis of dynamic correlation with some of the most explicative variables. The results suggest that the incorporation of significant exogenous variables within the ARIMAX-GARCH model with persistent correlation according to the DCC (Dinamic Conditional Correlation) model to the USD/COP pair generates out-of-sample forecasts with better performance than the ARIMA-GARCH univariate models.
