As originally drawn and estimated by professor Phillips, the Phillips curve is a curve indeed, not a straight line as often thought. Following Laxton, et. al. (1999) we estimate a convex Phillips curve and model the NAIRU as a variable that is unobserved. Using Colombian data, we provide...

En este artículo estimamos la demanda de dinero en Colombia introduciendo una variable para la innovación financiera. Al introducir la innovación financiera obtenemos un vector cointegrante que puede interpretarse como una demanda de dinero pues los coeficientes son teóricamente plausibles....
