With the increasing globalization in international markets, the importance of interactions between exchange rates and interest rates have increased. In view of the behaviors of capital mobility in financial markets are highly dependent on interest rates and the exchange rate between the countries concerned, policy implementations gain importance by taking into account the relationships between the monetary authorities' relevant macroeconomic indicators. In this study, the validity of unprotected interest rate parity was tested through the quarterly data of 2002:Q1-2019: Q2 selected 12 developed countries. Under the cross section dependence, dynamic panel data analysis method is used in studies where the economies of the countries that comprise the panel cointegration proposed by Westerlund and Edgerton between interest rate and exchange rate in a structural cointegration relationship was tested through the test panel to be broken. The findings indicate the existence of a cointegration relationship. On the other hand, for interest rate and exchange rate variables, the causality results proposed by Emirmahmutoğlu and Köse indicate the existence of one-way causality from the exchange rate to the interest rate. This result shows that monetary authorities cannot regulate financial markets with interest rates alone. So it seems that the control of exchange rates, which is the reason for interest rates, has become important.
