Abstract

El objetivo de este artículo es determinar las respuestas del índice de actividad económica de El Salvador tanto ante cambios en la oferta monetaria, el crédito y la tasa de interés nacionales, como en cuanto a la oferta monetaria y tasa de interés de los restantes países centroamericanos. El carácter distintivo del trabajo es que la economía salvadorena fue dolarizada en 2001. Los resultados indican que ninguna variable nacional provoca respuestas significativas en las otras variables nacionales, pero el índice de actividad económica salvadorena responde significativamente a cambios de las ofertas monetarias y las tasas de interés de otros países centroamericanos. ****** The aim of this paper is to determine the responses of the economic activity index of El Salvador to changes in the money supply, credit and the national interest rate, and the money supply and interest rate of the other Central American countries. The distinctive character of the work is that the Salvadoran economy was dollarized in 2001. The results indicate that no national variable elicits significant responses from the other national variables, but the Salvadoran economic activity index responds significantly to changes in the money supply and interest rates from other Central American countries. ****** O objetivo deste artigo é determinar as respostas do índice de atividade economica de El Salvador tanto a variacoes na oferta de moeda nacional, crédito e taxa de juros, quanto na oferta de moeda e taxa de juros dos demais países centro-americanos.
