Monetary policy and inflation in Brazil (1975-2000): a VAR estimation

Abstract: This paper investigates monetary policy and basic macroeconomic relationships involving output, inflation rate, interest rate, and money in Brazil. Based on a vector autoregressive (VAR) estimation, it compares three different periods: moderately-increasing inflation (1975-1985), high inflation (1985-1994), and low inflation (1994-2000). The main results are the following: monetary policy shocks have significant effects on output; monetary policy shocks do not induce a reduction in the inflation rate in the fi… Show more

“…9 ao agregar as diversas séries de preço que constituem o nível de inflação da economia, os movimentos se cancelariam, obtendo um padrão menos acentuado. Para maiores detalhes de price-puzzle no Brasil, Minella (2003). 7 Neste período da amostra não houve mudanças dos índices que compõem o IPCA.…”

“…Within the classical approach to VARs we have the studies of Rabanal and Schwartz (2001), Arquete and Jayme Jr. (2003), and Minella (2003), while Fiorencio et al (1998) use a Bayesian VAR (BVAR) in their analysis. Fiorencio et al (1998) use BVAR models to analyze the impacts of monetary and exchange rate policies on unemployment and the price level after the Real Plan.…”

“…According to them monetary policy have real effects, external restrictions and exchange rate volatility are important to the Central Bank reaction function but interest rate shocks increase inflation. Minella (2003) investigates the macroeconomic relationships involving output, inflation, interest rate, and money, comparing three different periods : January 1975-July 1985, August 1985-June 1994, September 1994-December 2000. His basic model includes output, inflation (IGP-DI), nominal interest rate (SELIC rate), and money (M1), used in this order in the Cholesky decomposition.…”
