Abstract

Uno de los principales motivos para acumular reservas internacionales es cubrir los egresos de la balanza de pagos ante una potencial escasez de divisas. Centrándose en el cubrimiento de los egresos por importaciones, se determina la composición cambiaria que mejor preserva el poder adquisitivo de las reservas en términos de una canasta de bienes importados ante variaciones en los tipos de cambio. Para esto, mediante el uso de modelos autorregresivos de tipo estructural, se considera el Exchange Rate Pass-Through de diversos tipos de cambio a los precios de los bienes importados, derivado de diferentes tipos de perturbaciones. Con los resultados de las estimaciones se realiza un ejercicio de aplicación para obtener una composición cambiaria óptima de las reservas internacionales para Colombia según el enfoque tomado en este trabajo. Se resalta la preeminencia del dólar estadounidense y la importancia de mantener un portafolio diversificado.
