Abstract

Para una adecuada conducción de la política monetaria en una econo-mía pequena y abierta como la colombiana, debe tenerse en cuenta tanto eltrilema de la política monetaria, como el ancla nominal de la economía. En estecontexto, el papel del banco central es el de decidir cuál es el ancla nominal para la economía. Sin embargo, existe simultáneamente una estrecha relación entre la política monetaria y la brecha del producto. El objetivo de este estudioes ilustrar esta dinámica a través de un modelo de política monetaria. Los resultados muestran la relación dinámica entre el comportamiento de la tasa de interés como función de la inflación subyacente y la brecha del producto. Una de las principales características de la solución es que la restricción de no negatividad sobre latasa de interés es obligatoria para bajos niveles de brecha del producto y bajas tasas de inflación.******To develop an adequate an monetary policy, in a small open economy like the Colombian, must take in to account, the Trilema of monetary policyand the nominal anchor of the economy, in this context, the central bank roleis that the decide which is the nominal anchor to the economy, however existsimultaneously a close relationship between the monetary policy and the grossdomestic product gap, the goal of this study is to illustrate this dynamic thoughtof an monetary policy model, the results show that the behavior of an optimalinterest rate like a function of the subjacent inflation and the gross domesticproduct gap, one of the principal characteristics of the solutions is that therestrictions of no negativity over the interest rate is necessary to lowers levelsof gross domestic product gap and lowers rates of inflation.
