In todays fast paced global economy, the accuracy in forecasting the foreign exchange rate or predicting the trend is a critical key for any future business to come. The use of computational intelligence based techniques for forecasting has been proved to be successful for quite some time. This study presents a computational advance for forecasting the Foreign Exchange Rate in Kuala Lumpur for Ringgit Malaysia against US Dollar. A neural network based model has been used in forecasting the days ahead of exchange rate. The aims of this research are to make a prediction of Foreign Exchange Rate in Kuala Lumpur for Ringgit Malaysia against US Dollar using artificial neural network and determine practicality of the model. The Alyuda NeuroIntelligence software was utilized to analyze and to predict the data. After the data has been processed and the structural network compared to each other, the network of 2-4-1 has been chosen by outperforming other networks. This network selection criteria are based on Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) value which shows the lowest of them all. The training algorithm that applied is Quasi-Netwon based on the lowest recorded absolute training error. Hence, it is believed that experimental results demonstrate that Artificial Neural Network based model can closely predict the future exchange rate.

The present study has empirically examined the level of foreign exchange exposure and its determinants of CNX 100 companies. For the purpose of study, the relationship between exchange rate changes and stock returns for a sample of 82 companies was determined for the period April 2011-March 2016. The study finds that 49% of the sample companies had significant positive foreign exchange rate exposure and the found that the companies could be exporters or net importers. To explore factors determining foreign exchange rate exposure, variables such as export ratio, import ratio, size of a company, hedging activities were regressed against the exchange exposure and the study found that none of the factors was influencing the exchange rate exposure. The study concludes that the reasons for insignificant influence of the variables could be the natural hedging practices of companies, offsetting of exports and imports and heterogeneous of the sample size. The study offers few directions for future research in this area.

Stock Market Development

This research investigated the effect of interest rate and foreign exchange rate on stock market development in Nigeria. This research was centered on two research problems. First, it was whether interest rate had a significant effect on stock market development in Nigeria. Second, it was whether foreign exchange rate had a significant impact on stock market development in Nigeria. The scope of the research covered the period from 1981 to 2017. Data for this period were chosen because it covered pre and post-liberalization periods of Nigerian financial system. This research made use of ex post facto research design. Secondary data were sourced from Nigerian Stock Exchange reports, Central Bank of Nigeria statistical bulletins, and National Bureau of Statistics publications. Data were collected on Stock Market Capitalization (SMC), Prime Lending Rate (PLR) and Real Exchange Rate (RER) (Nigerian Naira in relation to American Dollars of the United States). Data analysis was carried out with Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) and Cochrane-Orcutt Iterative techniques. The findings reveal that interest rate has a significant negative effect, and foreign exchange rate has a significant positive effect on Nigerian stock market development during the period covered. It is suggested that monetary authorities should strive to formulate policies that will make interest and foreign exchange rates stable, competitive, and at a level that will stimulate the investment of funds in the stock market.
