This study investigates and evaluates the effects of exchange rate fluctuations on the value added of the industry, services, and agriculture sectors using the NARDL method. The findings indicate that exchange rate changes have an asymmetric effect on the value added of different sectors. In all sectors, a negative shock affects the value added of the sectors more strongly than a positive shock. However, according to the results, this asymmetric effect is not uniform across different sectors. Overall, the findings show that the effect of real exchange rate fluctuations on all sectors is nonlinear and asymmetric. In the industry sector, the coefficient of positive real exchange rate shocks in the long run changes the growth of value added by 0.3 percent, and the coefficient of negative real exchange rate shocks in the long run changes it by 0.47 percent. Furthermore, in the short run, positive real exchange rate shocks had a negative and significant effect on the value added of the industry sector during the period under review. In the agriculture sector, in the long run, only the negative values of real exchange rate shocks change the growth of value added in this sector by a coefficient of 2.84 percent, while the positive values of real exchange rate shocks have no significant effect on the value added of this sector.
