About this document
High-Frequency FX Change Distributions by Hokyin Lo is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This paper analyzes the intraday distributions of US dollar-Deutsche mark exchange rate changes using high-frequency data from the Frankfurt Interbank Money Market. The findings indicate that these distributions are non-normal, particularly for shorter holding periods, with characteristic exponents suggesting a departure from normality. The results have implications for asset pricing models and risk management techniques that rely on the assumption of normality in financial returns.
