| Research Abstract |
In this research, I have analyzed structure of the government bonds markets and foreign exchange markets, by studying the efficient market hypothesis. The sample period is from 1977 to 1995.
I have tested whether the hypothesis of the foreign exchange markets holds or not. I have estimated the long-run unbiasedness hypothesis by the cointegration approach and found that the hypothesis not rejected. Then using VECM framework, I got the result that the short-run efficiency hypothesis did not hold.
I tested equality between the spot-equivalent futures price and price in order to examine the efficient market hypothesis through the cointegration approach. Then I estimated and tested cointegration parameters by the dynamic OLS.I found that the samples have cointegration relation, but the value of the parameter does not mean the equality, so I could not find the efficient market hypothesis true.
