The MWald tests are carried out following the TYDL procedure to test for
system (the economic model) of exports, foreign income (GDP), relative prices
(Exchange rates vis-à-vis the USD), and own and third country currency exchange
rate volatilities (EUR/USD, JPY/USD). It was opted for TYDL instead of Johansen’s
(1991) procedure due to the mix of unit root in the VAR system. In total 84 models
are estimated and they differ according to country, series type (real or nominal), type
of unconditional volatility (M-STD and CV), exchange rates (own and third country),
and exports (agricultural and total) using quarterly data from 1973 to 2013. There are
different types of series used in previous studies, thus our models and test results
The null hypotheses were tested separately for the national (own) vis-à-vis
USD currency exchange rate volatility, and for third country currency exchange rate
