Abstract

O objetivo deste artigo é discutir o papel da comunicação na condução da política monetária do Banco Central do Brasil. Constrói-se, inicialmente, um índice que traduz a informação qualitativa contida nas atas do COPOM num índice ordenado, semelhante ao construído por Rosa e Verga (2005). Encontra-se evidência que a comunicação do COPOM é consistente no sentido de que as palavras são seguidas por ações na mesma direção. Baseado em estimativas de regras de Taylor, encontra-se também evidência de que o índice ajuda a entender a fixação da taxa de juros, justificando a prática de central bank watching.
