Abstract

“Este documento pretende averiguar si el actual tipo de cambio real en Colombia es sostenible en el largo plazo, interrogante que debe resolverse conjuntamente con el de si la cuenta corriente de la balanza de pagos es financiable o no. En este orden de ideas, el trabajo se divide en dos capítulos, siendo el primero el de la cuenta corriente. En este primer capítulo se buscan tres cosas: primero, ver si la economía colombiana se caracteriza por acceso restringido al financiamiento externo; segundo, se examinan qué tipo de decisiones subyacen los déficit en la cuenta corriente, y finalmente se construye un "benchmark" con el cual se compara si el resultado observado es excesivo o no. En el segundo capítulo se estudia el tópico del tipo de cambio real sostenible en el largo plazo utilizando dos enfoques. El primero consistente en el análisis univariado de la serie histórica, descomponiéndola en sus partes cíclica y permanente, interpretando el segundo componente como el de equilibrio alrededor del cual gravita la tasa de cambio rea l observada. El segundo enfoque se basa en el análisis multivariado de los determinantes del tipo de cambio rea l, con el objeto de inferir si la trayectoria observada es una de equilibrio en el sentido de que guarda una correspondencia con el comportamiento de un conjunto de variables que distintos modelos encuentran significativas.”
