Abstract

[spa] Tipo de interés, política monetaria y actividad économica en Francia : un examen empírico, . por Frédérique Bec y Jean-Olivier Hairault.. . Se estudian las propiedades en términos de cointegración del producto en volumen, de un agregado monetario, de un índice de precios y de un tipo de interés nominal correspondientes a datos franceses. Este planteamiento permite revelar un impacto permanente especffico del tipo de interés al nivel de los tipos de interés de otros países. En el marco de un modelo de tendencias comunes, se analiza así la importancia de este impacto en las fîuctuaciones de la actividad económica de Francia. Este trabajo empírico hace resaltar una influencia negativa importante de las variaciones del tipo de interés real con respecto a la oferta de bienes. Ademas, los impactos de oferta de moneda podrían simular la actividad económica de forma transitoria por una vía distinta de aquella que corresponde a las variaciones del tipo de interés. [eng] Interest Rates, Monetary Policy and Economic Activity in France: An Empirical Investigation, . by Frédérique Bec and Jean-Olivier Hairault.. . The properties of these elements are studied in terms of the cointegration of product in volume, a monetary aggregate, a price index and a nominal interest rate taken from French data. This approach reveals a continuous and specific interest rate shock linked to the level of foreign interest rates. Amodel with common trends is used to make an analysis of the weight of this shock in economic activity fluctuations in France. This empirical work shows that variations in real interest rates have a sizeable negative effect on the supply of goods. Moreover, shocks in the money supply would appear to temporarily stimulate economic activity via a different channel than changes in interest rates. [ger] Zinssätze, Währungspolitik und Wirtschaftstätigkeit in Frankreich: eine empirische Untersuchung, . von Frédérique Bec, Jean-Olivier Hairault.. . In diesem Artikel werden die Kointegrationseigenschaften des Produktionsvolumens, eines Geldmengenaggregats, eines Preisindex und eines nominalen Zinssatzes anhand französischer Daten untersucht. Mit diesem Ansatz läßt sich das Vorhandensein eines speziellen und ständigen Zinssatzschocks infolge der Höhe der ausländischen Zinssätze aufzeigen. Im Rahmen eines Modells mit gemeinsamen Tendenzen wird anschließend die Bedeutung dieses Schocks bei den Schwankungen der Wirtschaftstätigkeit in Frankreich analysiert. Aus diesen empirischen Arbeiten geht hervor, daß die Schwankungen des realen Zinssatzes einen beträchtlichen negativen Einfluß auf das Gütaangebot haben. Daneben würden die Geldmengenschocks die Wirtschaftstätigkeit vorübergehend über einen anderen Weg als über die Zinssatzschwankungen stimulieren. [fre] Taux d'intérêt, politique monétaire et activité économique en France : un examen empirique, . par Frédérique Bec, Jean-Olivier Hairault.. . Nous étudions les propriétés en termes de cointégration du produit en volume, d'un agrégat monétaire, d'un indice de prix et d'un taux d'intérêt nominal sur données françaises. Cette démarche permet de révéler un choc permanent spécifique de taux d'intérêt lié au niveau des taux d'intérêt étrangers. Nous analysons alors, dans le cadre d'un modèle à tendances communes, l'importance de ce choc dans les fluctuations de l 'activité économique en France. Ce travail empirique met ainsi en évidence une influence négative importante des variations du taux d'intérêt réel sur l'offre de biens. En outre, les chocs d'offre de monnaie stimuleraient l'activité économique de façon transitoire par un autre canal que les variations du taux d'intérêt.
