Abstract

The present work evaluates disaggregated inflation responses to monetary policy shocks during the period 2003 to 2020. Autoregressive Vector Models with time-varying parameter vector autoregressive Models (TVP-VAR) are esti-mated and impulse response functions are used to assess the price behavior dis-aggregated to Selic shocks in different periods. To verify possible changes in the conduction of monetary policy in the period, a Taylor rule was also estimated for the studied period subject to structural breaks. The results of the structural break test by Bai and Perron (2003) found empirical evidence of a break in 2006m08, which may be associated with a change in the conduct of monetary policy by the Central Bank. This date, together with the dates when the presidents of the Cen-tral Bank took office, was used in the analysis of the impulse response functions of the TVP-VAR to compare the effects of monetary policy shocks in different periods. The results, based on the estimated impulse response functions, demon-strate similar responses of monetary policy shocks on disaggregated prices in different periods.
