Monetary Policy Rules in Colombia

Author

Listed:
  • Bernal Raquel

Abstract

Este estudio reporta estimaciones de una función de reacción de política monetaria para Colombia durante el período 1991 a 1999. Los resultados indican que durante este período el Banco Central adoptó una regla implícita cuyo objetivo era la tasa de inflación. La evidencia también sugiere que el Banco Central respondió a la inflación anticipada en contraposición a la inflación rezagada. De acuerdo con los resultados, aún bajo la existencia de una banda cambiaria cuyo objetivo era servir de ancla nominal para la política monetaria, el Banco Central tuvo espacio para movimientos independientes de la tasa de interés siempre y cuando la tasa de cambio no se encontrara en alguno de los dos extremos de la banda.
