In this paper we analyze the impact of exchange rate uncertainty on export flows among a panel of 27 countries throughout the 1994/01-2014/12 period. In order to do this, we apply a panel vector autoregressive model approach. By dividing the panel into two subgroups that involve...

This paper examines the evolution of price competitiveness of Uruguayan economy, assessing the presence of "Balassa-Samuelson Effect" and a change in the economy’s international integration, in a context of income and aggregate expenditure growth, through Johansen methodology. We found a...

The Uruguayan economy has undergone over the past two decades an important growth process, together with a real appreciation of the domestic currency. This implied that the Real Exchange Rate (RER), calculated as TP/NTP, experienced important changes. From this phenomenon, this paper examines...

This paper analyzes the relationship between exports and real exchange rate (RER) of six Uruguayan export products: beef, leather, dairy, chemical, metallurgical and plastics, selected for their importance in total exports during 1993-2011. We considered the sectoral RER and used the Johansen...

Here we analyze the relationship between the Uruguayan exports: beef, dairy, chemicals and plastics, and the sectorial real exchange rate (TCRES), from January-93 to December-09 studying the possible cointegration between the variables. The results differ across sectors analyzed. International...
