BRIC - Exchange Rate Analysis

Exchange rate of a country depends on several factors. We examined 3 factors:

  1. Inflation
  2. Balance of Trade (Exports - Imports)
  3. Interest Rates
and their effect on the exchange rate of BRIC (Brazil, Russia, India and China) using data available between 2005 - 2012.
