Abstract

El canal de crédito es uno de los principales mecanismos a través del cual se transmiten los estímulos de la política monetaria a la economía, por lo que identificar las condiciones que afectan su eficiencia es un tema de alta importancia. En este documento se evalúa el grado de rigidez de las tasas de interés activas y se identifican algunos factores de estructura del sistema financiero que afectan la eficiencia del canal de transmisión. Los resultados muestran que en el corto plazo la transmisión es incompleta, mientras que en el largo plazo las tasas se ajustan por completo. En términos de los efectos de la estructura del sistema financiero, se encontró que incrementos en el poder de mercado influyen negativamente sobre la transmisión de política monetaria. Asimismo, los intermediarios más grandes y más apalancados transmiten los cambios en la tasa de intervención en una menor proporción que los medianos y pequenos. ****** Credit channel efficiency is of high importance for monetary policy pass-through. Literature has shown that certain market structure characteristics have a negative effect on policy transmission. In this paper we aim to measure credit interest rate rigidities as a measure of monetary policy transmission, as well as to identify the effect that market structure has on policy pass-through. The results suggest that policy transmission is incomplete in the short run; while in the long run interest rates fully adjust to changes in the intervention rate. Also, we find that market power increases interest rate rigidities and that the largest and more leveraged banks transfer changes in the intervention rate in a less degree.
