On the Sources of Euro Area Money Demand Stability A Time-Varying Cointegration Analysis

چکیده

We adopt a time-varying cointegration test to discriminate among different empirical studies claiming to find a stable Euro Area money demand equation. A time-invariant relation explaining real balances is rejected by data, even when accounting for housing, financial and labour markets. Conversely, an international portfolio allocation approach provides stabilization. In particular, international financial markets, rather than monetary policy, are the key determinant of the observed diverging path of money growth. In terms of policy, we provide empirical support for a New Two Pillars Strategy aimed to achieve financial stability through money and credit and price stability through interest rates.

Money Demand Functions: Cointegration and Long{Run Stability

This paper applies conventional tests (Johansen, 1995) and new tests (Chao and Phillips,1999) for cointegration to long{run money demand functions using Canadian data from 1872 to 1997. If cointegration is found, recently proposed tests by Quintos (1997) for stability of the cointegration rank are carried out. The paper focuses on two spans of data: one span starting in 1872, the other in 1957 ...
