Financial integration of foreign exchange and money markets : evidence from MENA

Somar Alomhamad, Anil V. Mishra

Research output: Chapter in Book / Conference PaperChapter

Abstract

Research in this chapter investigates the dynamic linkages among foreign exchange and money markets for MENA countries. The chapter also explores the impact of internal and external shocks, especially the global financial crisis, on these markets. The results in this chapter state that the financial markets in the MENA region are not isolated from global events. Furthermore, the financial markets in the MENA region are cointegrated at both regional and an international level, yet not fully bound to developed markets.
