Abstract: | To identify nominal shocks in structural VAR models of open economies, it is common practice to use purchasing power parity as a long-run identifying restriction so that there are no long-run effects of nominal shocks on real exchange rates. However, in some recent open economy intertemporal models with sticky prices, nominal shocks can have long-run effects on both real exchange rates and trade balances. In this paper, structural VAR models for the G-7 are identified in such a way that nominal shocks, at least potentially, can have long-run effects on a country's real exchange rate. |
