CONCLUSIONS""; ""REFERENCES"" 330 3 $aLarge fundamental imbalances persist in the global economy, with potential exchange rate implications. This paper assesses whether exchange rate risk is priced across G-7 stock markets. Given the multitude of hedging instruments available, theory suggests that stock market investors should not be compensated for currency risk. However, data covering 33 industry portfolios across seven major stock markets suggest that not only is exchange rate risk priced in many markets, but that it is time-varying and sensitive to currency-specific shocks. With stock market investors typically exhibiting "home bias," this suggests that investors are using equity asset proxies to hedge the exchange rate risks to consumption. 410 0$aIMF Working Papers; Working Paper ;$vNo. 2006/194 606 $aForeign exchange rates 606 $aForeign exchange market 606 $aBanks and Banking$2imf 606 $aCapacity$2imf 606 $aCapital and Ownership Structure$2imf 606 $aCapital$2imf 606 $aCurrencies$2imf 606 $aCurrency$2imf 606 $aExchange rate risk$2imf 606 $aExchange rates$2imf 606 $aFinance$2imf 606 $aFinance: General$2imf 606 $aFinancial Risk and Risk Management$2imf 606 $aFinancial risk management$2imf 606 $aFinancial services law & regulation$2imf 606 $aFinancing Policy$2imf 606 $aForeign Exchange$2imf 606 $aForeign exchange$2imf 606 $aGeneral Financial Markets: General (includes Measurement and Data)$2imf 606 $aGoodwill$2imf 606 $aGovernment and the Monetary System$2imf 606 $aIntangible Capital$2imf 606 $aInvestment$2imf 606 $aInvestments: General$2imf 606 $aMacroeconomics$2imf 606 $aMonetary economics$2imf 606 $aMonetary Systems$2imf 606 $aMoney and Monetary Policy$2imf 606 $aMoney$2imf 606 $aPayment Systems$2imf 606 $aRegimes$2imf 606 $aReturn on investment$2imf 606 $aSaving and investment$2imf 606 $aStandards$2imf 606 $aStock exchanges$2imf 606 $aStock markets$2imf 606 $aValue of Firms$2imf 607 $aUnited States$2imf 615 0$aForeign exchange rates. 615 0$aForeign exchange market. 615 7$aBanks and Banking 615 7$aCapacity 615 7$aCapital and Ownership Structure 615 7$aCapital 615 7$aCurrencies 615 7$aCurrency 615 7$aExchange rate risk 615 7$aExchange rates 615 7$aFinance 615 7$aFinance: General 615 7$aFinancial Risk and Risk Management 615 7$aFinancial risk management 615 7$aFinancial services law & regulation 615 7$aFinancing Policy 615 7$aForeign Exchange 615 7$aForeign exchange 615 7$aGeneral Financial Markets: General (includes Measurement and Data) 615 7$aGoodwill 615 7$aGovernment and the Monetary System 615 7$aIntangible Capital 615 7$aInvestment 615 7$aInvestments: General 615 7$aMacroeconomics 615 7$aMonetary economics 615 7$aMonetary Systems 615 7$aMoney and Monetary Policy 615 7$aMoney 615 7$aPayment Systems 615 7$aRegimes 615 7$aReturn on investment 615 7$aSaving and investment 615 7$aStandards 615 7$aStock exchanges 615 7$aStock markets 615 7$aValue of Firms 700 $aMerritt$b Matthew$01816671 701 $aRoache$b Shaun$01815930 801 0$bDcWaIMF 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910973347703321 996 $aCurrency Risk Premia in Global Stock Markets$94372952 997 $aUNINA
