Abstract

Spanish Abstract: En este artículo se exponen en primera instancia, las características relevantes de los diversos modelos que se han desarrollado a través de la historia con el objetivo de explicar el comportamiento que presenta la tasa de cambio nominal, y en segundo lugar, se realiza la aplicación empírica del modelo de precios rígidos de determinación de la tasa de cambio para la economía colombiana mediante la técnica econométrica de cointegración. De la aplicación econométrica se destaca que las variables relevantes en el modelo de precios rígidos forman una relación estable de largo plazo, y que los signos de las elasticidades estimadas son conformes a lo planteado por el modelo.
