Abstract

[fre] Hétérogénéité, mémoire longue et dynamique du taux de change réel . par Patrick Fève . L'hypothèse de Parité de Pouvoir d'Achat peut être considérée comme l'une des théories du taux de change à l'équilibre les plus influentes en macro-économie ouverte. D'un point de vue empirique, c'est également l'une des plus étudiées mais aussi l'une des plus contestées. Après avoir dégagé les principaux enjeux liés à l'évaluation quantitative de la PPA, nous proposons de tester cette hypothèse à travers l'estimation de processus fractionnaires. Ce type de modélisation permet de traiter partiellement le problème de l'hétérogénéité mais constitue surtout une représentation plus générale de la dynamique du taux de change réel. Les tests de mémoire longue sont appliqués au taux de change réel du franc français contre le deutschemark, le dollar américain, la lire italienne et la livre sterling. La portée des résultats issus d'une telle modélisation reste cependant assez limitée, puisqu'il apparaît difficile de conclure quant à la pertinence empirique de l'hypothèse de PPA à long terme pour le deutschemark et la lire. De plus, hypothèse de racine unitaire ne peut être rejetée pour le dollar et la livre. [eng] Heterogeneity, Long Memory and the Dynamics of the Real Exchange Rate . by Patrick Fève . The purchasing power parity assumption could be considered to be one of the most influential equilibrium exchange rate in open economy macroeconomics. It is empirically one of the most studied assumptions, but also one of the most disputed. identify the main opportunities and threats of a quantitative evaluation of the PPP and propose testing this assumption by fractional processes. This type of modeling partially addresses the problem of heterogeneity, but above all provides a more representation of the dynamics of the real exchange rate. Long memory tests are applied to the real exchange rate for the franc against the deutschemark, the US dollar, the Italian lira and the pound sterling. Yet the scope of the results derived from modeling remains somewhat limited, as it is difficult to be conclusive about the empirical pertinence of the long-run PPP for the deutschemark and the lira. Moreover, the unit root assumption cannot be rejected for the dollar and the pound sterling.
