This paper develops and estimates a dynamic stochastic general equilibrium New Keynesian model of a small open economy with partial dollarization. We use Bayesian techniques and Peruvian data to evaluate two forms of dollarization: currency substitution (CS) and price dollarization (PD). Our...

This paper provides a fully micro-founded New Keynesian framework to study the interaction between oil price volatility, pricing behavior of firms and monetary policy. We show that when oil has low substitutability, firms find it optimal to charge higher relative prices as a premium in...

We evaluate the second order solution of a general equilibrium model for a small open economy in the line of the "new open economy macroeconomics". We use this framework to explain some recent regularities observed in economies in which central banks move from using a money aggregate as the...

Este trabajo contribuye a la discusión de políticas macroeconómicas para la economía peruana, reportando un conjunto amplio de hechos estilizados para el periodo 1980-2005. La documentación de esto hechos permitirá una mayor comprensión de las características distintivas de Perú y por...

This paper develops a dynamic stochastic general equilibrium model, which is calibrated for the Peruvian economy and can be useful for the design and analysis of monetary policy. The model includes a second currency that replaces partially the domestic currency in its functions of unit of...

In this paper, we develop and estimate a dynamic stochastic, general-equilibrium New Keynesian model with partial dollarization. Bayesian techniques and Peruvian data are used to evaluate two forms of dollarization: currency substitution (CS) and price dollarization (PD). The empirical results...

En este documento se desarrolla un modelo de equilibrio general dinámico y estocástico calibrado para la economía peruana que puede ser usado para el diseño y análisis de política monetaria. El modelo incluye una segunda moneda que reemplaza parcialmente a la moneda doméstica en sus...

Los autores analizan la importancia de seguir reduciendo la dolarización de la economía para garantizar una mayor efectividad de la política monetaria.

In this paper we report the main stylized facts of the business cycle for the Peruvian Economy. This study is important for the development of economic models, which are useful to evaluate the impact of different economic policies. Moreover, for those models to have empirical validity, it is...
