Abstract :
In 2005, after the RMB exchange rate reform, the RMB-USD exchange rate has been caused for concern. This article is based on the use of GARCH models to establish the prediction model of RMB-USD exchange rate and a new stimulated evolutionary optimization algorithm - ant colony algorithm applied to the model, hoping to provide a RMB-USD exchange rate for the model to predict accurately. We analyze the prediction results of GARCH model and MMAS-GARCH model, and eventually proved the MMAS-GARCH model is better than the GARCH model in the forecast of the RMB-USD exchange rate.
