Abstract

This paper aims to analyse the factors affecting exchange ratedetermination for the Spanish peseta. Nevertheless, this is not its onlyobjective. Two different models have been estimated using the cointegrationmethodology. One of them includes Spanish variables and aggregate variablescorresponding to the countries participating in the Exchange Rate Mechanism(ERM) of the European Monetary System (EMS). The other model refers only toSpanish and German variables. As the aggregate model results having moreexplanatory power than the simple one, this gives us an indirect argument foreconomic policy coordination among the European countries: the evolution ofexchange rate would depend on the variables of the whole systern. El propósito de este trabajo es examinar los factores que afectan altipo de cambio de la peseta. No obstante, éste no es su único objetivo. Se haprocedido a estimar dos modelos diferentes utilizando la técnica de lacointegración. El primero incluye como variables explicativas las españolasasí como variables agregadas formadas por las correspondientes a los paísesintegrantes del Mecanismo de Cambio e Intervención del Sistema MonetarioEuropeo. El otro modelo incluye solamente variables españolas y alemanas. Elhecho de que el modelo agregado resulte ser más explicativo que el modelo mássimple nos proporciona un argumento indirecto a favor de la coordinación depolíticas económicas entre los paises europeos de la CEE, ya que el tipo decambio dependía de las variables del sistema en su conjunto.
