What is the exchange rate mechanism?
The exchange rate mechanism is a means of determining and stabilizing the exchange rates by limiting to what extent the currency value can change. This type of system is sometimes called a half -flowing system because it allows for fluctuations in currency prices within the margin determined by monetary authorities. The exchange rate mechanism was created as one of the means of reducing the unpredictable changes of the exchange rate in the currency. One of the largest exchange rate mechanisms was the European exchange rate (ERM) mechanism (ERM), part of the European monetary system (EMS), which was later replaced after the creation of the Euro, the European currency unit, which was adopted in 1999. Bound systems can also be called currency exchange systems. Some bound systems use the main currency, often the US dollar, such as anchor currency, which means the value of fluctuating all currencies are based on currency fluctuations for anchors. As each currency fluctuates, it depends on its relationship specifiedvalues with anchor currency.
The free exchange rate system can also be called a floating system of exchange rates. In this type of exchange system, the price is determined according to the market value, so it is strongly influenced by economic changes. After the euro was accepted, ERM was replaced by ERM-II, similar to a semi-registered monetary system in which the euro acts as an anchorage currency. Like the original exchange rate mechanism, the ERM-II of the edges in which monetary values can fluctuate. When the currency values are threatened with fluctuations outside the margin, they take financial steps to repair fluctuations, including affecting the monetary market or offering loans.
The exchange rate is the price at which one country of exchanges can be for the currency of another country. The market for which the currency is traded is called the Forex (Forex), where the currency is often traded as an investment. Investors trade in the Forex market in a similar way as they trade with an actionEMI on the stock market, but rather than trading with stocks, buy and sell the currency of the country. They can also invest in Futures Forex, which are contracts for purchasing and selling currency at a specified price later. The mechanism of exchange rate used on many monetary markets can help stabilize some of the risks of common investment in the foreign exchange market.
