O trabalho analisou as inter-relações entre as taxas de juros domésticas (SELIC e SWAP DI-PR_E 360) e outras variáveis que teoricamente as afetam ou são afetadas por elas, como: o índice EMBI+, o câmbio, a inação e a razão DLSP/PIB. Além destas variáveis foram introduzidos na analise...

This article analyzes the exchange rate misalignment in Brazil in the period between 1994 and the early 2008, exploring its causes and consequences. The method used was to adjust the exchange rate according to the economic fundamentals. The estimations led to an expected long-term exchange rate,...

This paper aims to estimate the equilibrium real exchange rate for the Brazilian economy. The equilibrium exchange rate is defined as the level of exchange that guarantees that the net foreign asset position is stable over time. An econometric model is estimated using cointegration techniques....

We estimate a VAR model of the Phillips curve with an exchange rate shock to the Brazilian economy. Several different specifications, with different time frequencies, were estimated. Overall the results were robust to these changes, and can be summed up in the following: i) the pass-through to...

This paper aims to compare two different methodologies to estimate exchange rate misalignment. The first methodology consists in using multivariate time series techniques and a model with domestic variables. The second methodology consists in Pesaran's Global Vector Error Correction Model with...

This paper aims to discuss a methodology to calculate the error bands for exchange rate misalignments estimative. The exchange misalignment is not directly observed and its precision depends on the coefficients that link fundamentals to real effective exchange rate. The precision of exchange...

This study aims to test the existence of cointegration between variables that are typically used to estimate the existence of exchange rate misalignment for a sample of developed and developing countries, many of whom are members of the G20. The methodology consists in cointegration analysis...
