specification is an EGARCH specification with suitable lags of the variables in first differences.
Comparison of equations 2, 3 and 4 in Table 8 indicates that the set of variables found significant
for the pre-crisis period is nearly the same as that for the entire period. The coefficient of the
error correction term in Specification 4 is much smaller than in specification 2 and 3, likely
because Russian monetary authorities had less liberal policies for the exchange rate in the pre-
crisis period.32 Specification 4 will be utilized in Section 9 for out of sample forecasting.

32 The results on misalignment in section 8 below indicate that this rigid policy for the exchange rate contributed
to the currency crisis.
