Abstract

Foreign exchange reserve is an important phenomenon for global trade. The excess outflow of domestic currency due to any crisis leads to the devaluation of the domestic currency. It also forces central banks to deploy reserves to support their currencies. Foreign exchange is traded in financial markets and people with underlying interests like speculators, arbitrageurs & exporters. This paper focuses on the study of the extent effect of macro-economic factors on the Indian foreign exchange rate, Indian rupee/USD by using a linear regression model (Excel) and a Random Forest model using (R).
