Abstract

Este trabajo realiza un contraste de causalidad entre el tipo de cambio dólar estadounidense-euro y el diferencial de rendimiento de los bonos entre Estados Unidos y la Zona Euro. Para ello, se aplica el procedimiento secuencial de Hsiao (1981) a datos diarios para el período 1999-2011. Nuestros resultados sugieren la existencia de causalidad en el sentido de Granger estadísticamente significativa desde el diferencial de rendimiento de los bonos hacia el tipo de cambio, pero no a la inversa. Los resultados no cambian cuando se usan diferenciales de tipos de interés a corto plazo o cuando se analiza el tipo de cambio yen japonés¿euro, sin embargo, detectamos causalidad bidireccional de Granger entre el tipo de cambio libra esterlina-euro y el diferencial del tipo de interés a corto plazo entre el Reino Unido y la Zona Euro.
