Tourism revenues are affected by exchange rate volatility and the effects of exchange rate volatility on tourism revenues need to be researched.

Findings suggest that exchange rate volatility has a negative effect on tourism revenues. Additionally, a weak relationship was detected in the long term between exchange rate and tourism revenues.展开更多
