Over-valued currency

The situation of a currency whose value on the exchange market is higher than is believed to be sustainable. This may be due to a pegged or managed rate that is above the market-clearing rate, or, under a floating rate, it may be due to speculative capital inflows. Contrasts with under-valued currency.
