Abstract

Este documento analiza el impacto de un shock en la tasa de interés externa en la economía chilena. Con este fin, se estima un modelo empírico de Vectores Autoregresivos y adicionalmente se desarrolla un modelo estocástico de equilibrio general calibrado y parametrizado para la economía chilena. Del análisis de las funciones impulso-respuesta del modelo empírico se concluye que la autoridad monetaria no debiese reaccionar ante un shock transitorio en la tasa de interés externa. Más aún, si la autoridad monetaria reaccionase causaría una caída en el nivel de producto y un aumento de la tasa de inflación debido al ' price puzzle ' observado. De manera similar, las funciones impulso-respuesta y las simulaciones del modelo teórico utilizando reglas á la Taylor alternativas sugieren que la autoridad monetaria no debería reaccionar ante un aumento de la tasa de interés externa mientras valore la estabilidad de la tasa de inflación por sobre la volatilidad de la tasa de depreciación. Los resultados sugieren que una reacción moderada de la autoridad solamente lograría disminuir la volatilidad del tipo de cambio a un costo de una tasa de inflación más volátil.
