Abstract

In this study, we attempted to track the impact of quantitative easing on the currency of both Japan and the USA during the (2008M1-2019M6) study period by formulating a econometric model where the results indicated that due to the low long-term interest rates in Japan compared to the United States. A. This divergence in interest rates allowed the outflow of investments, as this movement reduced demand for the Japanese yen, causing a devaluation against the US dollar, which forces Japan to use this depreciation in its currency to encourage its exports
