The greater the degree of economic integration between markets in the home country and the base country:

the greater the volume of transactions and the greater the benefit to the home country of fixed exchange rates

the smaller the volume of transactions and the lesser the benefit to the home country of fixed exchange rates

the greater the volume of transactions and the greater the benefit to the home country of flexible exchange rates

the less important the volume of transactions and the greater the importance of ethnic similarities

Why do symmetric shocks not disturb fixed exchange rate systems?

Symmetric shocks happen only once and cause a one-time shift in interest rates

Symmetric shocks imply differences in rates of interest, which is irrelevant to fixed exchange rate systems

A demand shock can easily be dealt with using domestic policies that do not involve other nations

Symmetric shocks require the same medicine in both economies, so monetary policy will be in a direction to help both situations

The nation must administer the rates at all currency exchange venues, and it is expensive to do

The nation usually gets opposition from other trading partners who are excluded

The nation has to have a large store of gold on hand to exchange at fixed rates

The nation gives up its ability to control its money supply and affect its own interest rates

Consider an economy with a fixed exchange rate and money supply equal to 2 billion pesos. The country has 1 billion in reserves and 1 billion in domestic credit. If there is a sudden decline in the demand for money, then:

the country needs to reduce its reserves to maintain the exchange rate

the country needs to increase its reserves to maintain the exchange rate

the country will face rising interest rates and, thus, a sharp appreciation of the peso

the country will see a sharp increase in demand for loans
