History of Foreign Exchange
1. Gold Standard (1876 – 1913)
Each currency was convertible into gold at a specified
rate. When World War I began in 1914, the gold
standard was suspended.
1. The U.S. Dollar is the commonly accepted
medium of exchange in the spot market.
2. Spot market time zones - Foreign exchange
trading is conducted only during normal business
hours in a given location. Thus, at any given time
on a weekday, somewhere around the world a
bank is open and ready to accommodate foreign
exchange requests.
3. Spot market liquidity: More buyers and sellers
means more liquidity.
1. European Money Market: Dollar deposits in banks in
Europe and other continents are called Eurodollars or
Eurocurrency. Origins of the European money market can
be traced to the Eurocurrency market that developed
during the 1960s and 1970s.
2. Asian Money Market: Centered in Hong Kong and
Singapore. Originated as a market involving mostly
dollar-denominated deposits, and was originally known as
the Asian dollar market.
1. The money market interest rates in any particular
country are dependent on the demand for short-
term funds by borrowers, relative to the supply of
available short-term funds that are provided by
savers.
2. Money market rates vary due to differences in the
interaction of the total supply of short-term funds
available (bank deposits) in a specific country
versus the total demand for short-term funds by
borrowers in that country.

Risk of International Money Market Securities
1. International Money Market Securities are
debt securities issued by MNCs and government
agencies with a short-term maturity (1 year or
less)
2. Normally, these securities are perceived to be
very safe from the risk of default.
3. Even if the international money market securities
are not exposed to credit risk, they are exposed
to exchange rate risk when the currency
denominating the securities differs from the home
currency of the investors.
3. Basel II Accord - Attempts to account for differences in
collateral among banks. In addition, this accord encourages
banks to improve their techniques for controlling
operational risk, which could reduce failures in the banking
system. Also plans to require banks to provide more
information to existing and prospective shareholders about
their exposure to different types of risk.
4. Basel III Accord - Called for new methods of estimating
risk-weighted assets that would increase the level of risk-
weighted assets, and therefore require banks to maintain
higher levels of capital.

Syndicated Loans in the Credit Market
1. Sometimes a single bank is unwilling or unable to
lend the amount needed by an MNC or
government agency.
2. A syndicate of banks can be formed to
underwrite the loans and the lead bank is
responsible for negotiating the terms with the
borrower.
1. Credit Risk - represents the potential for default.
2. Interest Rate Risk - potential for the value of
bonds to decline in response to rising long-term
interest rates.
3. Exchange Rate Risk - represents the potential for
the value of bonds to decline (from the investor’s
perspective) because the currency denominating the
bond depreciates against the home currency.
4. Liquidity Risk - represents the potential for the
value of bonds to decline because there is not a
consistently active market for the bonds.
1. Non-U.S. firms have their shares listed on the
New York Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq
market so that the shares can easily be traded
in the secondary market.
2. Effect of Sarbanes-Oxley Act on Foreign
Stock Listings - Many non-U.S. firms decided to
place new issues of their stock in the United Kingdom
instead of in the United States so that they would not
have to comply with the law.
1. Stock market participation and trading activity are
higher in countries where managers are encouraged to
make decisions that serve shareholder interests, and
where there is greater transparency.
2. Factors that influence trading activity:
oting power
exchanged in order to facilitate international trade or
financial transactions. Commercial banks serve as financial
intermediaries in this market.
large banks that accept deposits and provide short-term
loans in various currencies. This market is used primarily by
governments and large corporations.
commercial banks that serve the international money
market. These banks convert some of the deposits received
into loans (for medium-term periods) to governments and
large corporations.
transfers of long-term credit, thereby enabling governments
and large corporations to borrow funds from various
countries. The international bond market is facilitated by
multinational syndicates of investment banks that help to
place the bonds.
financing in foreign countries. Thus, these markets help
MNCs finance their international expansion.
APA 7th Edition
Quick Guide
The American Psychological Association recently
updated its publication manual for its 7th edition.
There are some new and updated content regarding
paper elements and format, bias-free language
guidelines, in-text citations, and more than 100
examples of APA Style references including templates
for every reference category. Here’s an overview of
some of the changes.
Elements & Format
(Sections 2.3-2.25)
Recommended Fonts: (Use the same font throughout the text of
the paper) 11-point Calibri, 11-point Arial, or 10-
point Lucida Sans Unicode; 12-point Times New Roman, 11-
point Georgia, or normal 10-point Computer Modern
(default font for LaTeX).
Header: For student papers, include the short title of the paper
in all caps. No “Running head” required.
Student Title Page: Include the title, author names, author
affiliation, course number and name, instructor name,
assignment due date, and page number.
Writing Style & Grammar
(Sections 4.16-4.21)
The singular “they” is endorsed, consistent with inclusive
usage.
Always use a person’s self-identified pronoun, including when a
person uses the singular “they” as their pronoun.
Also use “they” as a generic third-person singular pronoun to
refer to a person whose gender is unknown or irrelevant
to the context of the usage.
Do not use “he” or “she” alone as generic third-person singular
pronouns. Use combination forms such as “he or she”
and “she or he” only if you know that these pronouns match the
people being described.
Do not use combination forms such as “(s)he” and “s/he.”
If you do not know the pronouns of the person being described,
reword the sentence to avoid a pronoun or use the
pronoun “they.”

Levels of Heading
(Section 2.27)
References
(Sections 9.1-9.2; 9.16; 9.23-9.37)
DOIs and URLs should be hyperlinks. The label “DOI:” is no
longer used.
The words “Retrieved from” are only used when a retrieval date
is also needed.
For online sources, include the URL at the end of the reference.
Do not use “Retrieved from”
Resources obtained from most academic research databases
(EBSCO, CINAHL, Films on
Demand): Do not include a database name and do not include a
url. Do include a DOI if there is one.
Individual Author Names: Provide last names and initials for up
to and including 20 authors. When there are two to
20 authors, use an ampersand before the final author’s name.
Group Author Names: When numerous layers of government
agencies are listed as the author of a work, use the
most specific agency as the author in the reference. The names
of parent agencies appear after the title as the
publisher.
Publisher location is no longer included in book citations.

Appropriate Level of Citation
(Section 8.1)
According to the APA: “Avoid both undercitation and
overcitation. Undercitation can lead to plagiarism and/or self-
plagiarism. Overcitation can be distracting and is unnecessary.
For example, it is considered overcitation to repeat the
same citation in every sentence when the source and topic have
not changed. Instead, when paraphrasing a key point
in more than one sentence within a paragraph, cite the source in
the first sentence in which it is relevant and do not
repeat the citation in subsequent sentences as long as the source
remains clear and unchanged.”
Example of an Appropriate Level of Citation (Figure 8.1 from
the Manual)
Humor plays an important role in everyday life, from
interacting with strangers to attracting mates (Bressler &
Balshine, 2006; Earleywine, 2010; Tornquist & Chiappe, 2015).
Some people, however, come up with funny and
witty ideas much more easily than do others. In this study, we
examined the role of cognitive abilities in humor
production, a topic with a long past (e.g., Feingold & Mazzella,
1991; Galloway, 1994) that has recently attracted
more attention (Greengross & Miller, 2011; Kellner & Benedek,
2016). Humor production ability is measured with
open-ended tasks (Earleywine, 2010), the most common of
which involves asking participants to write captions for
single-panel cartoons (for review, see Nusbaum & Silvia, 2017).

In-text Citations
(Sections 8.10-8.22)
For a work with one or two authors, include the author name(s)
in every citation.
For a work with three or more authors, include the name of only
the first author plus “et al.” in every citation (even the
first citation).
a. Current Account: summary of flow of funds due to
purchases of goods or services or the provision of
income on financial assets.
b. Capital Account: summary of flow of funds
resulting from the sale of assets between one
specified country and all other countries over a
specified period of time.
1. Payments for merchandise and services
Merchandise exports and imports represent tangible
products that are transported between countries. Service
exports and imports represent tourism and other services.
The difference between total exports and imports is referred
to as the balance of trade.
2. Factor income payments
Represents income (interest and dividend payments)
received by investors on foreign investments in financial
assets (securities).
3. Transfer payments
Represent aid, grants, and gifts from one country to
another.
1. Direct foreign investment
Investments in fixed assets in foreign countries
2. Portfolio investment
Transactions involving long term financial assets (such as
stocks and bonds) between countries that do not affect the
transfer of control.
3. Other capital investment
Transactions involving short-term financial assets (such as
money market securities) between countries.
4. Errors and omissions
Measurement errors can occur when attempting to measure the
value of funds transferred into or out of a country.
1. Removal of the Berlin Wall: Led to reductions in trade
barriers in Eastern Europe.
2. Single European Act of 1987: Improved access to
supplies from firms in other European countries.
3. North American Free Trade Agreement
(NAFTA): Allowed U.S. firms to penetrate product and
labor markets that previously had not been accessible.
4. General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade
(GATT): Called for the reduction or elimination of trade
restrictions on specified imported goods over a 10-year period
across 117 countries.
1. Definition of Outsourcing: The process of
subcontracting to a third party in another country to
provide supplies or services that were previously
produced internally.
2. Impact of outsourcing:
1. Increased international trade activity because MNCs now
purchase products or services from another country.
2. Lower cost of operations and job creation in countries with
low wages.
3. Criticism of outsourcing:
1. Outsourcing may reduce jobs in the United States.
1. The annual international trade volume of the United
States is between 10 and 20 percent of its annual
GDP.
2. Trade volume between the United States and Other
Countries:
1. About 20 percent of all U.S. exports are to Canada,
while 13 percent are to Mexico.
2. Canada, China, Mexico, and Japan are the key
exporters to the United States. Together, they are
responsible for more than half of the value of all U.S.
imports.
1. Cost of Labor: Firms in countries where labor costs
are low commonly have an advantage when
competing globally, especially in labor intensive
industries
2. Inflation: Current account decreases if inflation
increases relative to trade partners.
3. National Income: Current account decreases if
national income increases relative to other
countries.
1. Restrictions on Imports: Taxes (tariffs) on imported goods
increase prices and limit consumption. Quotas limit the
volume of imports.
2. Subsidies for Exporters: Government subsidies help firms
produce at a lower cost than their global competitors.
3. Restrictions on Piracy: A government can affect
international trade flows by its lack of restrictions on
piracy.
4. Environmental Restrictions: Environmental restrictions
impose higher costs on local firms, placing them at a global
disadvantage compared to firms in other countries that are
not subject to the same restrictions.
deficit:
When a home currency is exchanged for a foreign currency
to buy foreign goods, then the home currency faces
downward pressure, leading to increased foreign demand for
the country’s products.
trade deficit:
Exchange rates will not automatically correct any
international trade balances when other forces are at work.
1. Competition: foreign companies may lower their prices to
remain competitive.
2. Impact of other currencies: a country that has balance of
trade deficit with many countries is not likely to solve all
deficits simultaneously.
3. Prearranged international trade transactions: international
transactions cannot be adjusted immediately. The lag is
estimated to be 18 months or longer, leading to a J-curve
effect.
4. Intracompany trade: Many firms purchase products that are
produced by their subsidiaries. These transactions are not
necessarily affected by currency fluctuations.

1. The United States relies heavily on foreign
investment in:
buildings.
ecurities
2. Foreign investors are especially attracted to the U.S.
financial markets when the interest rate in their home
country is substantially lower than that in the United
States.
1. Major Objectives of the IMF
i. promote cooperation among countries on international
monetary issues,
ii. promote stability in exchange rates
iii. provide temporary funds to member countries attempting
to correct imbalances of international payments
iv. promote free mobility of capital funds across countries
v. promote free trade. It is clear from these objectives that
the IMF’s goals encourage increased internationalization
of business
2. Its compensatory financing facility (CFF) attempts to
reduce the impact of export instability on countries.
3. Financing is measured in special drawing rights (SDRs)
current account and the capital account. Current account -
broad measure of the country’s international trade balance.
Capital account - measure of the country’s long-term and
short-term capital investments.
Outsourcing,
subcontracting with a third party in a foreign country for
supplies or services they previously produced themselves, has
increased. Thus increasing international trade activity.

factors that influence direct foreign investment or portfolio
investment. Direct foreign investment tends to occur in those
countries that have no restrictions and much potential for
economic growth. Portfolio investment tends to occur in those
countries where taxes are not excessive, where interest rates
are high, and where the local currencies are not expected to
weaken.
