Abstract

Under the monetary regime put into practice since 2007 in Uruguay, which uses interbank interest rate as an instrument, liquidity management has become more and more important. As a result, money demand estimation is still essential in order to project supply and demand liquidity factors. This paper adjusts a model for real money demand by adding to traditional explanatory variables – real output and nominal interest rate – an additional variable that measures relative volatility of real returns of a dollar-denominated fixed-income substitute asset and money itself. In the long-run relationship found, real money balances are positively related with real output with unitary elasticity and those balances are inversely related with nominal interest rate. Besides, the volatility variable has a positive influence on money demand and acts as an exogenous variable. The error-correction model specified satisfies usual stability requisites.
