11
4 commodity currencies in the sample; (NOK, CAD, AUD, NZD)
Strong dollar, fall in dollar-denominated commodity prices
Fall in commodity prices, strong dollar bilaterally
Two negative shocks to banks’ balance sheets in commodityproducers
Overstate the importance of dollar for banks equity and fundingconditions in commodity producers?
