Repasse cambial no Brasil: uma investigação a nível agregado a partir de um SVEC / Exchange-Rate pass-through in Brazil: a SVEC investigationGodoi, Lucas Gonçalves 14 June 2018 (has links)
O impacto de movimentos cambiais nos níveis de preços é de suma importância para a formulação de políticas econômicas. Nesse contexto, este trabalho tem como objetivo a utilização de uma nova metodologia para a estimação e cálculo do repasse para diferentes índices de preço no período de 2003-2017. Estudos anteriores nesse campo identificam ignoram as relações de longo-prazo presentes no sistema ou não utilizam as restrições dadas pela estrutura de cointegração do sistema. Assim a identificação dos choques estruturais é discutida a partir da premissa de separação entre choques permanentes e estruturais sendo que a mesma é fundamentada pela teoria com o auxílio de testes estatísticos. Além dessa estrutura não-recursiva, uma alternativa é apresentada a partir de estruturas recursivas de Cholesky de forma a tornar possível a comparação. Três distintas especificações são estimadas de maneira a gerar estimativas para o repasse aos preços de importação, no atacado e ao consumidor para o Brasil. Para a estrutura não recursiva os repasses para os preços de importação variam de 48 a 65% a depender da especificação sendo diferentes de completo no longo-prazo. Para os preços no atacado os repasses variam de 11 a 15% se mostrando em duas das três especificações estatisticamente diferentes de zero. Os repasses ao consumidor variam de 4 a 13% se mostrando estatisticamente diferente de zero em duas das três especificações. / The impact of exchange rate movements on price levels is of utmost importance for the formulation of economic policies. In this context, this paper aims to use a new methodology for the estimation and calculation of the pass-through for different price index in the period 2003-2017. Previous studies in this field identify ignore the long-term relationships present in the system or do not use the constraints given by the system cointegration structure. Thus, the identification of structural shocks is discussed from the premise of separation between permanent and structural shocks, and it is based on theory with the aid of statistical tests. In addition to this non-recursive structure, one is estimated from Cholesky\'s recursive structures in order to make the comparison possible. Three different specifications are estimated in order to generate estimates for the transfer of import, wholesale and consumer prices to Brazil. For the non-recursive structure, pass-through for import prices range from 48 to 65 % depending on the specification being different from complete in the long run. For producer prices, pass-through range from 11 to 15 % and in two of three specifications they are statistically different from zero. Pass-through to the consumer prices ranges from 4 to 13 % and it is statistically different from zero in two of the three specifications.

The Exchange Rate Pass-through Into Domestic Manufacturing Prices During Two Inflation RegimesShahbazian, Roujman January 2009 (has links)
<p>In the beginning of 1990s Sweden implemented several measures in order to maintain price stability. These measures have resulted in an environment in which inflation is lower and more stable. The same development could be seen in other OECD countries. At the same time a decrease in exchange rate pass-through was noticed in many countries. This has led researchers to believe that there may be a connection, between these two phenomena. This dissertation analyzes whether there has been any change in exchange rate pass-through for manufacturing products in Sweden between the high inflation period (1977-1993) and the low inflation period (1994-2006). The result shows that there is a difference in the exchange rate pass-through between the two periods. During the low inflation period the degree of pass-through was lower than during the high inflation period.</p>

Pass – Througheffekten i svenska importpriser : en empirisk studieSvensson, Anders January 2007 (has links)
<p>I den här uppsatsen har jag undersökt hur pass-through effekten har förändrats i svenska importpriser på aggregerad nivå och i sju olika industrier. Pass-through effekten definieras som den procentuella förändringen i ett pris som kan härledas till en enprocentig växelkursförändring. Jag har använt rullande regressioner på två olika modeller för att estimera förändringar över tidsperioden 1980 – 2003. Resultaten visar en nedgång i pass-through effekten i flertalet industrier både på kort och lång sikt. Men på aggregerad nivå visar resultaten att effekten inte har förändrats nämnvärt över tiden. På kort sikt visar de båda metoderna liknande resultat, men på lång sikt finns det en skillnad dem emellan. En av modellerna visar en fördröjning i den långsiktiga pass-through effekten, vilket kan förklaras med att prissättningen inte är effektiv och att det finns störningar på marknaden.</p>

Non-linear Structure Of The Turkish Interest Rate Transmission MechanismBozok, Ihsan 01 September 2012 (has links) (PDF)
This paper empirically analyses the interest rate transmission mechanism from money market rate to lending rate by utilizing the bank-level data in the distinction of cash, automobile, housing and corporate loans in Turkey. The main objective is to reveal the possible asymmetries of the adjustment process as well as the extent of the pass through. Empirical results indicate that mark-up value is the minimum for corporate rates on average, followed by housing, automobile and cash rates, respectively. Additionally, while large banks follow small mark-up pricing, small banks follow large mark-up pricing for corporate loans. Furthermore, a complete pass through is detected in 75 percent of the corporate loans, whereas the rates of banks that completely react to money market changes are 58 percent for cash and housing loans and 50 percent for automobile loans. We also find evidence that cash
loans having high mark-up values do not adjust completely to variations in money market rate. Based on TAR and MTAR models of Enders and Siklos (2001), substantial asymmetries exist for all lending types. In general, adjustment towards
the long-run equilibrium is faster when the disequilibrium or change in disequilibrium is above the threshold (upward rigidity).

Essays on Mechanism Choice and AuctionsBauner, Christoph January 2011 (has links)
<p>This dissertation consists of three chapters relating to various topics in empirical Industrial Organization. The first two chapters deal with the empirical treatment of sales in online markets. The third chapter explores the level of pass-through for taxes on soft drinks.</p><p>In the first chapter I demonstrate that when dealing with online market places it is important to take into account the fact that multiple listings coexist. Traditionally, the economic literature has treated listings as independent. In reality, however, buyers often have the choice between multiple contemporaneous listings. I demonstrate that it is important to take this fact into account since sellers who list their items simultaneously are in direct competition. More specifically, I show that the sale probability of a given item decreases when the number of simultaneous listings increases. Thus, the aforementioned assumption of independence can lead to wrong results.</p><p>In the second chapter, I specify and estimate a structural model of mechanism choice in online markets. I consider both sides of the market: On the demand side, buyers' choices among available listings are equilibrium outcomes of an entry game. On the supply side, sellers take competition into account and make equilibrium decisions when choosing sales mechanisms and prices. I estimate this model using data from sales of baseball tickets on eBay. I find that sellers' outside options, dynamic incentives, and risk preferences affect mechanism choice. Using the estimation results from my model I analyze the welfare effects of a hybrid mechanism (buy-it-now auctions) eBay offers. I find that the existence of buy-it-now auctions increases the consumer surplus and reduces the producer surplus. The reason for this is that buy-it-now auctions diminish sellers' potential for diversification via mechanism choice and thus strengthen competition.</p><p>The third and last chapter focuses on the incidence of soda taxes by studying the pass-through level of these taxes. It lays out a framework for thinking about the determinants of the pass-through level. More specifically, it builds theoretical models that examine the pass-through under more complex supply structures with multiple manufactures and retailers. In addition to providing some intuition behind theoretical predictions of the models, this chapter also presents empirical results found in the data along with their implications.</p> / Dissertation

BUSINESS CYCLES, FISCAL STABILIZATION AND VERTICAL FOREIGN DIRECT INVESTMENT: ESSAYS IN INTERNATIONAL MACROECONOMICSKersting, Erasmus K. 16 January 2010 (has links)
My dissertation studies various questions falling into the broad context of
macroeconomics and international economics. The questions have macroeconomic
components because they are concerned with the behavior of aggregates. Specifically,
the second and third chapters of my dissertation study the causes of fluctuations in
aggregate macroeconomic variables and the way policy can be coordinated
internationally to reduce these fluctuations, respectively. In addition, chapters III and IV
address questions that fall into the realm of international economics. They are concerned
with the optimal exchange rate regime between two countries, the consequences of
partial exchange rate pass-through and the effect of an increase in vertical Foreign Direct
Investment (FDI) by domestic firms. The framework of my analysis is given by different
versions of general equilibrium models.
The second chapter of my dissertation decomposes fluctuations in aggregate observables
for the UK economy during the 1980s recession. Using a modern accounting procedure,
I estimate parameters that describe the economy using annual data from 1970 to 2002. Then, I simulate different versions of the model to find the distortions that are essential
in driving the observed fluctuations. I find labor market distortions to be crucial in
accounting for the episode, suggesting that the policies of the time were well targeted
and effective.
The third chapter of my dissertation studies policy coordination in a two-country
framework allowing for partial pass-through. In particular, both countries are assumed to
have monetary and fiscal stabilization instruments available. The optimal setting of these
instruments under differing pass-through regimes is analytically derived. Fiscal policy is
found to be used in a counter-cyclical fashion. In addition, the magnitude of fiscal
stabilization is the largest when pass-through is partial.
In the fourth chapter, I study the consequences of vertical FDI on aggregate productivity
and welfare. The framework allows for heterogeneity across firms in two dimensions. It
is firms that are at a disadvantage with respect to manufacturing costs that are benefiting
most from moving their production process abroad. Overall, the ability to engage in
vertical FDI increases productivity, lowers prices and thus increases welfare.

Import Price Pass-through Into Inflation Indicators In TurkeyYunculer, Caglar 01 September 2009 (has links) (PDF)
This thesis analyzes the pass-through of external factors into consumer and producer prices in Turkey, with a special emphasis on import price pass-through. To this end, pricing along a distribution chain framework is utilized and it is estimated by Vector Auto Regression (VAR) in a sample period of April 2002 to March 2009. Results show that the pass-through of external shocks into producer prices is higher than it is for consumer prices. Compared with the results of previous studies, findings point out that the degree of pass-through has declined recently in Turkey. In addition, it is found that external factors had significant contribution to annual consumer inflation between 2006 and 2008. Nevertheless, even the contributions of external shocks are excluded, year-end inflation targets would not have been attained.

Exchange Rate Pass-through And Inflation TargetingGulsen, Eda 01 September 2009 (has links) (PDF)
In this study, we aim to investigate the impact of inflation targeting (IT) and the recent global disinflation on exchange rate pass-through (ERPT) using quarterly data from 1980:1 to 2009:1 for 51 industrial and emerging market (EM) countries. To this end, we employ not only the conventional panel data estimation methods but also the recent Common Correlated Effects Pooled estimation procedure by Pesaran (2006) which allows estimating the impact of common global shocks such as global inflation. We also explore some other determinants of ERPT during the recent global disinflation period. Furthermore, we consider asymmetric effects of positive and negative output gaps as proxies for domestic demand conditions on ERPT for IT industrial and EM countries.
Our results strongly suggest that, for the non-IT samples, ERPT is significantly higher in EM countries than industrial countries. For every country groups excluding Euro area countries, we find that ERPT declined substantially during the recent global disinflation period. The decline in the ERPT is, however, much higher in IT countries especially in EM ones. One striking result is the convergence of ERPT coefficients of EM countries to industrial IT countries with the adoption of IT. This supports the endogenous response of ERPT to monetary policy credibility and price stability. Consequently, a high ERPT, per se, may be interpreted as not a binding constraint for the adoption of IT as it tends to decline with the success of monetary policy regime. We also find that ERPT appears to be more sensitive to positive output gaps in IT industrial countries whilst it does not have such a response to positive or negative output gaps in IT emerging market countries.

Exchange Rate Pass-through Into Domestic Price Indicators: A Sectoral Analysis Of Turkish EconomyOzen, Emine Ozgu 01 December 2011 (has links) (PDF)
The question of exchange rate pass-through into domestic inflation is a widely analyzed issue due to its importance as regards to monetary policy, exchange rate policy and in general macroeconomic policy for open economies. Although most of the literature is focused on the exchange rate pass-through at the aggregate level, there are fewer studies that are done at the sectoral level for the Turkish economy. In this study by using a distribution chain of pricing model developed by McCarthy (2000), pass-through of exchange rates and import prices into domestic prices for selected sectors are examined for the Turkish economy. The emprical model estimates a Vector Auto Regression (VAR) to see pass-through dynamics through times and across the selected sectors. This study covers March 2002-December 2010 period / the period of floating exchange rates. Findings indicate that pass-through has fallen recently in Turkey. Moreover, results of the analysis show that external factors explain an important proportion of the variance of domestic prices for the sectors which have a larger import share.
