An agnostic assessment of real exchange rate dynamics in LATAM

This paper investigates the dynamics of multilateral real effective exchange rates (RER) using a panel data set of 19 Latin American countries for the last 45 years. Our results do not support the PPP, so real shocks tend to have permanent effects. Using non-stationary panel econometrics, our estima...
