Exchange rate regimes in the Caribbean

This document analyses exchange rate regimes in the Caribbean subregion. Caribbean exchange rate regimes are typified into hard and soft pegs. Hard pegs refer to those arrangements that maintain a constant value of the domestic currency in terms of the currency of a major trading partner. The Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States (OECS); economies established a monetary union in 1983. The Bahamas, Belize and Barbados also fixed the value of their domestic currency in relation to the United States dollar in the middle of the 1970s. Soft pegs are monetary arrangements characterized by a forcefully managed exchange rate. Three countries are included in this category, Guyana, Jamaica and Trinidad and Tobago

Exchange rate pass-through and inflation targets in Chile

Using quarterly data on the Chilean economy from 1986 to 2009, this article looks at the effect of gradual implementation of an inflation-targeting regime on exchange rate pass-through to prices. Initially, the introduction of inflation-targeting contributes to substantial reductions in the pass-through coefficient. However, in the second phase of implementation, once the monetary authority extends the policy horizon and introduces greater flexibility into the exchange rate system, the pass-through coefficient rises sharply. The findings of this study show that exchange rate pass-through to prices, in addition to being sensitive to the inflationary environment, is closely tied to the rules of the game that shape the monetary policy framework.
