Abstract
This study pursues a joint purpose: firstly, it attempts to find an optimal indicator for expected exchange rate changes - a variable that appears quite often in open-economy models - and secondly it tests whether it is possible to find basic forecasting functions that can systematically ‘beat the market’. The empirical results point towards a poorer forecasting accuracy of functions that are based on leading indicators as compared to ‘naive’ methods that rest on rational expectations theory. In most cases the respective interest rate differential - together with the ‘zero-change’ forecast - proved to be the most accurate technique for forecasting exchange rate changes.
