Abstract

The interplay between leverage, house prices and financial instability may depend on the nature of shocks affecting an economy and its policy setting. We investigate which conditions or shocks explain financial stability and house prices in Venezuela. Rising financial instability is observationally associated with tight monetary conditions, high interest rates and an appreciated domestic currency. Under the current institutional framework, fiscal and foreign exchange policy actions deliver the strongest monetary effects affecting bank funding and stability. Real house prices respond to loose monetary conditions and real demand shocks. Findings suggest that macroprudential prescriptions should aim at stabilizing bank funding.
