Abstract

This paper analyzes the response of the stock market returns to monetary policy decisions by the Central Bank of Chile. It adopts the event-study methodology in order to gauge the influence of anticipated and unanticipated changes in the Chilean monetary policy interest rate (TPM), decided in every meeting of Monetary Policy Comitee, on the return of stocks traded at Santiago Stock Exchange in the monthly period 2001-2012. Unlike most the literature on this subject, mainly associated with US Federal Reserve monetary policy, no evidence is found on the impact of monetary surprises on stock returns, when surprise is measured using the Economic Expectations Survey.
