Abstract

I show that accounting for a structural monetary policy shock associated with the 2007-2008 global financial crisis is crucial in order to obtain moderate empirical support for the Fisher effect in India since the liberalization of the early 90’s. Additional empirical evidence about the stochastic properties of real interest rates further supports this conclusion. Drawing on this evidence, some policy implications related to the persistence of negative real interest rates in India during the latest years are discussed. - L’articolo mostra che tenere conto di uno shock di politica monetaria associato alla crisi finanziaria globale del 2007-2008 è importante al fine di ottenere un discreto supporto empirico per l’effetto Fisher in India, a partire dal processo di liberalizzazione dei mercati finanziari avviato all’inizio degli anni novanta. Questa conclusione è rafforzata da ulteriori evidenze empiriche relative alle proprietà stocastiche dei tassi di interesse reali. Sulla base di questi risultati empirici, vengono discusse alcune implicazioni di politica economica relative alla persistenza di tassi di interesse reali negativi in India nel corso degli ultimi anni.
