Abstract We find that about 13% of our sample 817 European multinational firms experienced economically significant exposure effects to the Japanese yen, 14% US dollar and 22% UK pound. Our evidence differs substantially from experience is robust across sub‐sample periods, suggesting a depreciating (appreciating) euro against foreign currencies has net negative (positive) impact on stock returns. Short‐term seems be relatively well hedged, where considerable long‐term found. Firms with weak...
