Abstract

The objective of this short note is to re-evaluate the solution given by Palley (2002) for the inconsistency problem in BoP-constrained growth models. I show that once we distinguish the concepts of natural and warranted rates of growth that over-determination problem appears again, requiring the introduction of the level of real exchange rate in the formal structure of BoP models in order to be solved.
