Abstract

This is a critical evaluation of the state of the art in International Finance. Several points of reference are selected: The Mundell–Fleming–Branson (MFP) paradigm, the monetary model with purchasing power parity (PPP) as a long run anchor, the representative agent approach and the natural real exchange rate (NATREX) model. Their strengths and weaknesses are identified from both a theoretical and empirical point of view. We conclude with a suggestion of what is a fruitful explanation of medium to longer run movements in the real exchange rate and the current account.
