摘要:This paper analyses the impact of foreign currency exposure on the value of the New Zealand public listed companies using the New Zealand/US exchange rate and Trade Weighted Index factor return.Augmented market model(Adler and Dumas,1984;Di Iorio and Faff,2000;Dominguez and Tesar,2001)would be employed to study the relationship between exchange rate movements and firm value.Using daily data,we test the following hypotheses in this paper:a) Foreign currency exposure is a function of firm's size and its industry affiliation;b)Foreign cur?rency exposure is a function of financial indicators,such as dividend yield,liquidities and P/E ra?tio.However,we find very weak and ambiguous evidence for the foreign currency exposure on the value of New Zealand companies.
