Short Answer
Advertisements

Solution

Capital movements affect exchange rates by changing the demand and supply of foreign currency.

  • Capital inflows (money coming into the country) increase the supply of foreign currency, causing the domestic currency to appreciate.

  • Capital outflows (money leaving the country) increase demand for foreign currency, causing the domestic currency to depreciate.
