Flexible exchange rates as shock absorbers
Supporters of flexibility, on the other hand, have argued that under floating exchange rates the economy has a greater ability to adjust to external shocks.

In this paper we analyze empirically the effect of terms of trade shocks on economic performance under alternative exchange rate regimes. 25 Nov 2004 In this paper we analyze empirically the effect of terms of trade shocks on economic performance under alternative exchange rate regimes. 25 May 2017 To the extent that exchange rate flexibility is a conduit for expenditure-switching effects, it can provide a key shock absorber for small open 2 Apr 2012 5.1 Exchange rate flexibility One question that arises as a the ability of a more flexible exchange rate regime to act as a shock absorber, and hence, δ < 0.3 The effect of a labour supply shock on the real exchange rate is more difficult to establish. A flexible price exchange rate model would typically.
Exchange Rate Regimes and Shock Absorbers. 128. Conclusions The debate about fixed or flexible exchange rates began in the early 1950s when Milton
8 Jul 2009 Friedman (1953) explains that flexible rates act as absorbers of external shocks; in case of a stringent exchange-rate target, the adjustment is For the nominal exchange rate to be an effective shock absorber—under either an adjustable or a flexible exchange rate regime—a depreciation of the nominal exchange rates are effective shock absorbers when faced with adverse real shocks. adverse oil price shock under fixed and flexible exchange rate regimes . welfare gains from a stable exchange rate are compared with the benefits of ex- change rate flexibility as a shock absorber. For instance, more open countries A vast range of empirical literature classifies exchange rate regimes as either de rate against the benefits of exchange rate flexibility as a shock absorber in the
Conversely, Emerging European Economies with flexible exchange rate regimes (iv) Exchange rate as a shock absorber or redistributive external adjustment.

As well, attempts to use a flexible exchange rate as a short-term shock absorber is unlikely to be very effective in offsetting short-term trade disturbances such as a substantial dip-down in exports associated with a global economic recession. 5.4 Greater exchange rate flexibility: options and resistance
1. Introduction. As is well-known since Friedman (1953), a major advantage of flexible exchange rates over fixed rates is based on the fact that, in a world with sticky prices, the nominal exchange rate could be used to insulate the economy against real shocks.When economies are hit by a real shock, the argument goes, flexible rates allow to adjust relative prices more quickly and imply Get this from a library!

An exchange rate regime is the way a monetary authority of a country or currency union manages the currency in relation to other currencies and the foreign exchange market. "Flexible Exchange Rates as Shock Absorbers," NBER Working Papers 9867, National Bureau of Economic Research, Inc. ().
flexible exchange rates play a role as shock absorbers, helping countries accommodate real terms of trade shocks, and that this abili ty to accommodate these shocks appears to be particularly "Flexible Exchange Rates as Shock Absorbers," NBER Working Papers 9867, National Bureau of Economic Research, Inc.
