Specifically refers to the ratio of one country's currency and another country's currency or ratio, or the price of another country's currency expressed in one country's currency.

Exchange rate changes on a country's import and export trade has a direct regulatory effect. Under certain conditions, by making the national currency depreciation, that is, let the exchange rate rise, will play a role in promoting exports and limiting imports; Conversely, the national currency appreciation, that is, the exchange rate fell, will play a role in limiting exports and increasing imports.

Two, the role of the exchange rate and what are the effects?

1, import and export

Generally speaking, the exchange rate of the local currency, that is, the local currency of the external ratio depreciation, can play a role in promoting exports, inhibit the role of imports; if the exchange rate of the local currency, that is, the local currency of the foreign currency ratio rose, it is conducive to imports, is not conducive to exports.

2, prices

From the point of view of imported consumer goods and raw materials, the decline in the exchange rate to cause the price of imported goods in the domestic price increases. As for the extent of its impact on the overall price index depends on the share of imported goods and raw materials in the gross national product. Conversely, ▲ other conditions remain unchanged, the price of imports may be reduced, as to the extent of its impact on the overall price index depends on the share of imported goods and raw materials in the gross national product.

3, capital flows

Short-term capital flows are often strongly influenced by the exchange rate. When there is a tendency for the local currency to depreciate externally, domestic and foreign investors are reluctant to hold a variety of financial assets denominated in the local currency, and will be converted into foreign exchange, the phenomenon of capital outflow. At the same time, due to the transfer of foreign exchange, exacerbated by the oversupply of foreign exchange, will contribute to further decline in the exchange rate of the local currency. Conversely, when there is a tendency for the local currency to appreciate externally, domestic and foreign investors seek to hold a variety of financial assets denominated in the local currency and trigger capital inward flows. At the same time, due to the foreign exchange have been converted to the local currency, foreign exchange oversupply, will contribute to the local currency exchange rate to rise further.
