摘要：

This paper investigates the half-life of real exchange rates after taking into account the impact of home bias. Empirical results indicate that the half-life of real exchange rates is in the range of 1.5 to 2 years for four out of five countries after controlling the impact of home bias. These results support Obstfeld and Rogoffs (2000, NBER Macroeconomics Annual) view that home bias is crucial in explaining the PPP puzzle. Crown Copyright (C) 2010 Published by Elsevier B.V.
