Abstract

This paper shows that an economic policy change in 1982 brought about a conspicuous alteration in the relationship between money, prices and the exchange rate in Mexico. Before that year, the long-run demand for currency was the velocity equation, and inflation was driven mainly by the money gap. After a striking changeover, from 1983 until 2000 the demand for currency took a very different form, and inflation was determined by the markup without an explicit effect from money. However, the long-run relationship that links the levels of output, the exchange rate and foreign prices with that of nominal money holds for the whole sample.// El presente artículo demuestra que un cambio de política economica en 1982 produjo una modificación notoria en la relación entre el dinero, los precios y el tipo de cambio en México. Antes de ese año, la demanda de dinero de largo plazo tenía la forma de la ecuación cuantitativa del dinero, y la inflación estaba impulsada principalmente por la brecha monetaria. Después de una interesante mutación, desde 1983 y hasta el final de la muestra la demanda de moneda local tomó una estructura muy diferente, y la inflación pasó a ser determinada por el margen del nivel de precios con respecto a los precios externos y los salario sin un efecto explícito del dinero. Sin embargo, la relación de largo plazo que vincula los niveles del producto, del tipo de cambio y de los precios externos con la cantidad nominal de dinero se mantiene para todo el periodo de análisis.
