1 Moneary policymaking and inflaion expecaions: The experience of Lain America Luiz de Mello and Diego Moccero OECD Economics Deparmen Brazil/Souh America Desk 8h February 7

2 1999: new moneary policy regimes in Brazil, Chile, Colombia and Mexico. Inflaion argeing wih floaing exchange raes. Quesions: 1. How was moneary policy s persisence affeced?. Has moneary policy become more forward looking? 3. Are oher objecives of moneary policy being negleced? 4. How volailiy in key variables has been affeced? Wha was he role of shocks? 5. Is moneary policy anchoring inflaion expecaions? 6. Has ineres rae volailiy spread ino expeced inflaion volailiy? Answering hese quesions: convenional New Keynesian model (Q1- Q4), coinegraing echniques (Q5) and a mulivariae GARCH (Q6).

5 Answer o quesions 1-3: Persisence has increased in Brazil, Chile and Colombia. Moneary policy has become more forward looking in Brazil and Chile. Moneary policy has became more counercyclical in Brazil bu less so in Colombia and Mexico.

9 Counerfacual analysis (Q4) Real ineres rae volailiy has been reduced in Brazil, Colombia and Mexico. Oupu volailiy has been reduced in Colombia.

10 Answer o quesion 4: The reducion in real ineres rae volailiy has o do wih shocks in Brazil, Colombia and Mexico. The reducion in oupu volailiy has o do wih shocks in Colombia.

14 Answer o quesion 5: There are long-erm relaionships beween he ineres rae, expeced inflaion and he inflaion arge, suggesing ha moneary policy has been conduced in a forward-looking manner and helped anchor inflaion expecaions.
