CEE
- The chart below ranks the major G10+CEE currencies based on their percentage difference between the current spot rate and their 'fair' value, which we define using a Behavioral Equilibrium Exchange Rate (BEER) model (using terms of trade, inflation and 10y interest rate differentials as explanatory variables).
- According to our model, the Hungarian Forint is the 'cheapest' among the G10/CEE world, undervalued by 15% relative to the US Dollar.
- We saw recently that the HUF has also been trading at a very low levels relative to its historical range.
- The Czech koruna has also been weakening in recent weeks despite CNB running an 'aggressive' tightening cycle; CZK is currently 6.3% undervalued against the USD.
- The British pound is the most undervalued currency among the G10 world (-13%).
- Not surprisingly, the CHF is the most 'expensive' currency according to our model, overvalued by 9.1%.
