Fiscal and monetary policy rules in Brazil: empirical evidence of monetary and fiscal dominance

Abstract: Based on the hypothesis that the rules of monetary and fiscal policy in Brazil may have been subject to different regimes, the present study applies the Leeper model (1991 and 2005) to identify the chronology of policy regimes in terms of their active and passive character. The policy rules are estimated using the Markov-switching model, with a monthly database from November 2002 to December 2015, in which the regimes are endogenously determined. The results obtained indicate that fiscal dominance occurred in… Show more

“…The response of both policies indicates that the variables vary over time, producing nonlinearities. To overcome this problem in the variables, several studies used different techniques employing the Markov Switching Model [33][34][35][36]. Therefore, this study uses the vector autoregressive (VAR) model with the Markov Switching Technique to measure the impact of such changes on the evolution of Jordan's economy.…”

“…Even prior to the pandemic, there were concerns about the sustainability of Brazil's debt and deficit levels. Moreira et al's (2021) findings suggest that fiscal policy had already become inconsistent with public debt sustainability by 2013. In such a case, expectations of future monetary accommodation can exert inflationary pressures today even if current monetary policy remains restrictive.…”

“…There are numerous examples and case studies regarding the experience of fiscal policy rules in Latin American economies: Brazil (1995) (Moreira, Mendonca, and Sachsida 2021), Colombia (2000, 2011, Chile (2000), Mexico (2006), andNew Zealand (Grûnwald 2018).…”

“…These rules, coordinated with the Central Bank, make a policy framework aimed at reducing output volatility and improving credit worthiness. Moreover, within a rational expectation framework, a monetary policy rule requires a fiscal policy rule (Favero and Monacelli 2005;Moreira, Mendonca, and Sachsida 2021).…”
