Abstract

Tradicionalmente los requerimientos de encaje han sido vistos como un instrumento clave de la pol�tica monetaria, sin embargo, recientemente �stos han sido menos esenciales dado que el crecimiento de los agregados monetarios ha dejado de ser el objetivo de pol�tica de muchos pa�ses. A pesar del desmonte gradual de los encajes durante la d�cada de los noventa en varios pa�ses, en ciertas coyunturas espec�ficas pa�ses como Colombia han hecho uso de pol�ticas de encajes para fortalecer el control monetario. De esta forma, el an�lisis de los encajes es de inter�s a la hora de evaluar la efectividad de dichas pol�ticas bajo los diferentes reg�menes monetarios (metas intermedias sobre agregados monetarios e inflaci�n objetivo). En este documento se encuentra que a�n bajo el esquema de inflaci�n objetivo, los encajes pueden tener un efecto sobre la tasa de inter�s de los cr�ditos y sobre la cartera del sistema financiero, dada la incertidumbre sobre la tasa de inter�s de pol�tica futura y el consecuente riesgo que deben enfrentar los intermediarios financieros cuando los plazos de los cr�ditos y los dep�sitos bancarios difieren de los plazos del cr�dito del Banco Central.
