This paper employs a recently developed parametric technique to obtain
density forecasts for the Brazilian exchange rate, using the exchange rate
options market. Empirical results suggest that the option market contains
useful information about future exchange rate density. These results
suggests that density forecasts using options markets may add value for
portfolio and risk management, and may be useful for financial regulators to
assess financial stability.
