I61-R167-123456789-46342025-04-12T15:45:58Z The Real Exchange Rate as a Target of Macroeconomic Policy Frenkel, Roberto Rapetti, Martín Desarrollo Económico Economía Fil: Frenkel, Roberto. CEDES. Centro de Estudio de Estado y Sociedad, Área de Economía; Argentina Fil: Rapetti, Martín. CEDES. Centro de Estudio de Estado y Sociedad, Área de Economía. Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas y Técnicas (CONICET); Argentina In recent years, several authors have argued that developing countries should aim to target a stable and competitive real exchange rate (SCRER) to foster economic growth. A growing body of empirical research gives support to this claim. Although more theoretical work is needed, some ideas from development theory can help to explain the empirical findings. For instance, if modern tradable activities display some form of increasing returns to scale, market forces alone would deliver a set of relative prices to render capital accumulation in these activities suboptimal. This chapter supports the view that developing countries could target SCRER as part of a development strategy that promotes the expansion of modern tradable activities. We review the empirical findings, discuss the channels through which a SCRER can stimulate economic growth and describe the policies needed to pursue a strategy based on a SCRER. 2021-07-05T20:02:39Z 2021-07-05T20:02:39Z 2015 Parte de Libro info:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersion https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/ info:eu-repo/semantics/bookPart info:ar-repo/semantics/parte de libro 9789211128949 https://unctad.org/webflyer/rethinking-development-strategies-after-financial-crisis http://repositorio.cedes.org/handle/123456789/4634 eng Licencia Creative Commons Atribución-Sin Derivados 4.0 Internacional (CC BY-ND 4.0) info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess application/pdf UNCTAD Rethinking Development Strategies after the Financial Crisis |
