Abstract

In this note the effect of unanticipated sterling M3 announcements on the sterling-dollar covered interest parity relationship is investigated. It is demonstrated inter alia that unanticipated monetary announcements have a significantly positive effect on the one month euro-sterling interest rate, a significantly negative effect on the one month euro-dollar interest rate which in turn generates an expected exchange rate depreciation.
