Abstract

This paper explores empirically the relationship between the Monetary Policy in the U.S. and the real exchange rate MXN/USD over the period 1996-2012 with monthly data. We consider a cointegration approach using a model of real exchange rate fundamentals as in Goldfajn and Valdes (1999), where the international interest rate is used as an indicator of the monetary policy in the U.S. We find evidence of cointegration and a negative long run elasticity of real exchange rate with respect to the international interest rate. On the other hand, the results from error correction estimates indicate that the adjustment process that follows a disequilibrium in the long run relationship of the real exchange rate and its fundamentals lasts approximately ten periods.
