摘要This article consists of two parts. The first part investigates skewness and elongation of six monthly exchange rate changes series using estimates of g (for skewness) and h (for elongation) obtained from Tukey's g and h distributions. It is found that the exchange rate distributions are generally more elongated than the standard Gaussian distribution. Using the g-and-h distributions, improved measures of exchange rate variability are constructed. On the basis of the regression results, the second part of this article examines the effect of the exchange rate variability on trade volumes. The empirical results do not provide conclusive evidence that the improved variability measures using the g-and-h distributions have a significant negative effect on Hong Kong's manufactured exports and imports.
