EXCHANGE RATE PASS-THROUGH IN A SMALL OPEN ECONOMY: A STRUCTURAL VAR APPROACH

Estimating Exchange Rate Pass-Through on Producer Prices in Main Sectors of Iranian Economy

Exchange rate changes could impact on prices. Whether exchange rate pass through to prices is complete or incomplete is an interesting question in analyzing impacts of exchange rate policy. An important aspect of exchange rate pass through is in producer price index and in its sub-indices. Our aim is to analyze the effects of exchange rate changes on producer sub-indices. To do that we have use...

Assessing exchange rate pass-through: A new empirical approach

Recent work by Devereux, Engel, and Storgaard (2004, JIE, pp. 286), suggests that one of the key channels through which monetary policy may work is by changing the degree of pass-through. Inspired by this observation, we develop a unified estimation framework within a fully specified open macroeconomic model where both pass-through and exchange rates are endogenously determined so as to empiric...

Exchange rate pass-through in Iran: Exchange rate effects on the consumer price index

The purpose of this study is to find an accurate estimate of the exchange rate-CPI relationship in Iran over the past three decades. The results of the Granger causality test in the frequency domain demonstrate a strong causation from the exchange rate to CPI especially in the long run. The results of the wavelet analysis show that in the currency crisis periods, the exchange rate-CPI correlati...

Capital Accumulation and Convergence in a Small Open Economy

 Outward-oriented economies seem to grow faster than inward-looking ones. Does the literature on convergence have anything to say on this? In the dynamic Heckscher-Ohlin-Samuelson model, with factor-price equalization, there is no convergence of incomes. This is because with identical preferences and return to capital, irrespective of initial levels the growth rates of consumption are the same....
