Abstract
This paper distinguishes exchange rate variability from exchange rate misalignments and presents statistical measures in this regard. It uses PPP as a crude approximation of equilibrium exchange rates and shows that during periods of possible misalignments, the exchange rate variability of some EMS and other currencies tends to increase.
