Data Appendix 330 3 $aThe IMF's Consultative Group on Exchange Rate issues (CGER) has been conducting exchange rate assessments as part of the surveillance process since 1997. This paper evaluates CGER assessments from 1997 to 2006, by comparing these to subsequent movements in real effective exchange rates (REER). We find that CGER's estimated misalignments have predictive power over future REER movements, especially over longer horizons and after changes in fundamentals are accounted for. But while CGER misalignments frequently predict the direction of currency movements correctly, misalignments have tended to be persistent, resulting in systematic errors-overprediction for undervalued currencies and underprediction for overvalued currencies. 410 0$aIMF Working Papers; Working Paper ;$vNo. 2009/032 606 $aForeign exchange rates$xMathematical models 606 $aForeign exchange 606 $aCurrencies$2imf 606 $aCurrency$2imf 606 $aExchange rate assessments$2imf 606 $aExchange rates$2imf 606 $aForeign Exchange$2imf 606 $aForeign exchange$2imf 606 $aGovernment and the Monetary System$2imf 606 $aMonetary economics$2imf 606 $aMonetary Systems$2imf 606 $aMoney and Monetary Policy$2imf 606 $aMoney$2imf 606 $aPayment Systems$2imf 606 $aReal effective exchange rates$2imf 606 $aReal exchange rates$2imf 606 $aRegimes$2imf 606 $aStandards$2imf 607 $aUnited States$2imf 615 0$aForeign exchange rates$xMathematical models. 615 0$aForeign exchange. 615 7$aCurrencies 615 7$aCurrency 615 7$aExchange rate assessments 615 7$aExchange rates 615 7$aForeign Exchange 615 7$aForeign exchange 615 7$aGovernment and the Monetary System 615 7$aMonetary economics 615 7$aMonetary Systems 615 7$aMoney and Monetary Policy 615 7$aMoney 615 7$aPayment Systems 615 7$aReal effective exchange rates 615 7$aReal exchange rates 615 7$aRegimes 615 7$aStandards 676 $a339.267 700 $aLee$b Jungjin$01800217 701 $aAbiad$b Abdul$01800218 701 $aKannan$b Prakash$01800219 801 0$bDcWaIMF 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910957189103321 996 $aEvaluating Historical CGER Assessments$94344868 997 $aUNINA
