Abstract

This paper studies how the effect of macroeconomic shocks on inflation depends on the severity of restrictions on international borrowing and imports. Using a calibrated model of a small open economy, I show that the effect of a change in the terms of trade, while being neutral in the absence of these restrictions, becomes inflationary in their presence. Inflation pressures emerge due to a higher interest rate on external borrowing, which is raised in order to pay for imports, and also due to trade costs, which have a direct effect on the domestic price of imported goods. As a consequence, monetary policy in the presence of restrictions on financial and trade transactions becomes tighter
