This paper uses the "Behavioral Equilibrium Exchange Rate" (BEER) approach to estimate the equilibrium real exchange rate (RER) for Peru. A bootstrap technique is then employed to build confidence bands for the equilibrium path, so that it is possible to determine whether exchange rate...

In this article the underlying inflation is estimated by means of a common stochastic trend scheme associated with a structural restriction vectorial error correction model (SVEC). The estimation possesses the desired characteristic concerning variance and it's related with the behavior of...

Spanish Abstract: Durante el período 2006-2013 Colombia experimentó una de las apreciaciones reales más fuertes del mundo. Durante este mismo período, el volumen de exportaciones manufactureras disminuyó cerca de un 50%, mientras el volumen de importaciones aumentó cerca de la misma...

Este artículo presenta un modelo unificado de las dos principales explicaciones del crecimiento basadas en la demanda: la ley de Thirlwall y el modelo de dos brechas. Se muestra que, bajo ciertas especificaciones, la brecha externa es equivalente a la ley de Thirlwall con flujos de capital. El...

This paper estimates the magnitude of the exchange rate pass-through to consumer prices in Mexico. Moreover, it analyzes if the pass-through dynamics have changed in recent years. In particular, it uses a methodology that generates results consistent with the hierarchy implicit in the CPI. The...

This paper analyzes the pass-through of exchange rate to different price indexes in Mexico. The analysis is based on a vector autoregressive model (VAR) using monthly data from January 1997 to December 2010. The pass-through effects are calculated by means of accumulated impulse response...

This paper analyzes the results of some price stabilization programs classified in the literature as Exchange Rate Based Stabilization (ERBS) and Money Based Stabilization (MBS) in connection to their temporary nature for this, a theoretical and analytical framework is developed that allows...
