The euro exchange rate and Germany's trade surplus

Abstract: In the context of debates about the euro exchange rate's (EXR) impact on Germany's (DE) trade surplus, we estimate a multiregion macroeconomic model (1999–2018) and provide a counterfactual in which we simulate the shocks of the estimated model in an alternative setting with freely floating nominal EXRs. The results suggest a reduction of the DE trade surplus by up to 1.3% of gross domestic product (GDP; around 1/4 of the surplus) during 2010–2015 compared to the data, together with a stronger real effective E… Show more

Furthermore, it is also unclear still what exactly drives the investment draught, and there are most likely other reasons than an investment risk premium (see, for example,Kollmann et al, 2015, andVogel, 2020, for a discussion).
