Abstract

The Fisher-Seater (1993) methodology is applied to Guatemala data (1950-2002) in order to test for long-run neutrality of money. Real GDP, consumption, investment and public expenditure, and the monetary base and M2a are found to be I(1). Given this order of integration, we applied the Fisher Seater neutrality test and we found evidence of M1 neutrality with respect to GDP, expenditure and consumption.
