The results confirm the importance of using nonlinear models to address companies’ exchange rate exposure. The results indicate that when compared to the linear model commonly used in literature, the nonlinear model leads to an increase in the number of firms exposed to exchange rate fluctuations, which allows a more accurate analysis of the impact of exchange rate fluctuations on the value of firms.10 p.DigitalInglêsNonlinear Foreign Exchange Exposure: Evidence from Brazilian Companiesworking paperExchange rate exposureLinearitiesExchange rateBEWP 070/2009
