  1. The concept of interest rates and exchange rate

Interest rates are the cost that borrowers pay to borrow from creditors, and are often set by central banks as part of monetary policy.

The exchange rate is the value of one country’s currency compared to another, and directly affects international trade, foreign investment, and capital movement.

  1. The impact of interest rates on inflation and economic growth

3.1 Direct Impact

  • on inflation: When central banks raise interest rates, the cost of borrowing increases, reducing aggregate demand. This decrease in demand can contribute to lower inflation. Conversely, when interest rates are lowered, borrowing and consumption levels increase, which can lead to an increase in inflation.
  • on economic growth: Interest rates affect investment levels, as investors tend to postpone investment decisions in a high interest rate environment. Therefore, lowering interest rates may stimulate economic growth by increasing investments.

3.2 Indirect Influence

  • on economic confidence: Consumer and business confidence is affected by changes in interest rates. If rates are low, consumers may feel able to spend more, boosting economic growth.

4.1 Impact on prices

  • Low exchange rate: When the currency depreciates, imports become more expensive, increasing the cost of imported goods and services. This may contribute to higher levels of inflation.
  • High exchange rate: Conversely, if the currency appreciates, imports become cheaper, which can contribute to lower inflation.

4.2 Impact on exports and imports

  • Foreign trade: The exchange rate affects the competitiveness of domestic goods in international markets. If the exchange rate is low, exports become more competitive, boosting economic growth. Conversely, if the exchange rate is high, imports may negatively affect domestic production.
  1. Valeo’s role in studying the impact of interest rates and the exchange rate

  • Provide accurate analytics: Feasibility studies provide comprehensive analyses on how interest rate and exchange rate changes affect the financial performance of projects.
  • Risk identification: Feasibility studies highlight the potential risks associated with changes in interest rates and exchange rates, enabling companies to take appropriate precautionary measures.
  • Orientation of strategies: Feasibility studies help guide companies’ strategies towards achieving desired economic goals, taking into account the potential effects of interest rates and exchange rates.
