Traditional portfolio balance theory derives a downward sloping currency demand function from limited international asset substitutability. Historically, this theory enjoyed little empirical support. We provide direct evidence by examining the ex-change rate effect of a major redefinition of the MSCI international equity index in 2001 and 2002. The index changes implied large changes in the representation of different countries in the MSCI world index and therefore produced strong exoge-nous equity flows by index funds. Our event study shows a strong announcement effect in which countries with a decreasing equity representation vis-a-vis the U.S. depreciated against the dollar
