Abstract

El presente documento re�ne una serie de notas que estudian aspectos emp�ricos del comportamiento de la tasa de inter�s y la inflaci�n en Colombia. La presentaci�n se divide en dos secciones. La primera analiza la relaci�n entre la tasa de inter�s y la inflaci�n, con el fin de evaluar el empleo de la tasa de inter�s como instrumento de la pol�tica monetaria3. Esta indagaci�n se aborda en tres pasos: primero, se estudia la relaci�n entre las diferentes tasas de inter�s de mercado, esto es, la tasa interbancaria, la de captaciones del sistema financiero y la de cr�ditos. Se utilizan dos herramientas emp�ricas, el an�lisis espectral (del cual se presenta una explicaci�n), y los vectores autorregresivos. Se concluye que es posible afectar las tasas de colocaci�n y captaci�n, en plazos razonables, a trav�s de intervenciones sobre la tasa interbancaria. A partir de este hecho, el segundo paso analiza la relaci�n entre la tasa de inter�s (nominal y real), la inflaci�n y la actividad econ�mica. Finalmente, dado que la tasa de inter�s real relevante en este tipo de an�lisis es aquella ex-ante, se elabora un c�lculo de dicha tasa, y su relaci�n con la tasa ex-post. La segunda secci�n del documento se centra en dos aspectos puntuales de la inflaci�n en Colombia: la identificaci�n de un indicador l�der de la inflaci�n y la estimaci�n de un tipo de costo de la inflaci�n en Colombia, basado en la variabilidad de precios relativos. El indicador l�der est� elaborado a partir de las colas de la distribuci�n de cambios en los componentes del IPC. En cuanto a la �ltima secci�n, un aporte importante de �sta es el uso de un empalme de las tres series existentes de IPC, que permite tener datos unificados desde 1972 hasta el presente. La metodolog�a empleada para elaborar este empalme se presenta en el ap�ndice.
