| 總結: | The study presents an overview of USD/VND exchange rate in Vietnam, a
theoretical framework, and a review of the literature on the theme of factors
affecting the exchange rate. From those, the author chose some macroeconomic
variables which were divided into two groups to find the better performance group
of variables in explaining the USD/VND exchange rate. The research used Johansen
Cointegration Tests to investigate the long-run relationship between the variables,
then led to use the Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) to estimate the equation
of the exchange rate. The main findings of the thesis are:
1) In the short-run horizon, only Interest Rate does Granger cause the Exchange rate
at the level of 10% significance. And there are five cointegrating relations between
six variables, mean existing five long-run relationships between variables according
to Johansen Cointegration Tests result; 2) Excluding the historical Exchange Rate,
the two main variables affecting the Exchange Rate are GDP and Balance of
Payment – current account, however, the proportion of each variables changing over
time in Variance Decomposition analysis. 3) Conventionally, the Interest Rate and
Reserves are usually used as tools of the Exchange Rate intervention of the
government, however, both appear to play a small role in affecting the Exchange
Rate in short-term horizon. 4) The Inflation and Interest Rate in the model can give
better performance (with higher adjusted R2) than the differentials of Inflation and
Interest Rate between Vietnam and the US.
Those results emphasize some implications for the policymaker, organizations as
well as encourage for further study in USD/VND exchange rate, for example, in a
larger sample, and in forecasting.
