1 Country Spreads and Emerging Countries: Who Drives Whom? Martin Uribe and Vivian Yue (JIE, 26)

Sample Period: 994: to 2:4 3
4 Impulse Response To A Country- Spread Shock Output Investment Trade Balance to GDP Ratio World Interest Rate Country Interest Rate Country Spread Point Estimate Error Band 4
5 Impulse Response To A World-Interest- Rate Shock Output Investment Trade Balance to GDP Ratio World Interest Rate Country Interest Rate Country Spread Point Estimate Error Band 5
6 Impulse Response To An Output Shock Output 3 Investment Trade Balance to GDP Ratio World Interest Rate Country Interest Rate Country Spread Point Estimate Error Band 6
7 Variance Decomposition Output Investment quarters quarters.4 Trade Balances to GDP Ratio 2 World Interest Rate quarters quarters Country Interest Rate Country Spread quarters quarters ɛ rus + ɛ r ɛ rus 7
8 Alternative Identification Scheme: Place Country Spreads first in the VAR system Implication: Output and investment expand in response to an increase in the world interest rate. Problem: It s difficult to rationalize this implication on theoretical grounds. 8
9 Aggregate Volatility With and Without Feedback of Spreads from Domestic Variables Variable Feedback No Feedback Std. Dev. Std. Dev. ŷ î tby R Result: Eliminating feedback of spreads from domestic variables reduces aggregate volatility by about 2 percent. Caution: The Lucas critique applies. We will redo this exercise using a theoretical optimizing model. 9
10 Summary of Empirical Findings. An increase in the world interest rate or in the country spread causes output and investment to fall and the trade balance to improve. 2. An increase in the world interest rate causes a delayed overshooting in the country spread 3. The effects of world-interest-rate shocks on domestic variables is measured with significant uncertainty. 4. US-interest-rate shocks account for 2 percent of aggregate fluctuations in Emerging Markets. 5. Country-spread shocks explain about 2 percent of aggregate fluctuations in EM 6. About 6 percent of movements in country spreads are explained by country-spread shocks.

17 Estimating φ, ψ, η, and µ Criterion: Minimize the distance between empirical and theoretical Impulse Response Functions. Formally, φ, ψ, η, and µ are set so as to minimize [IR e IR m (ψ,φ,η,µ)] Σ IR e [IR e IR m (ψ,φ,η,µ)], Result: ψ =.2 φ = 28 η =.3 µ =.26 7

21 Summary. US-interest-rate shocks account for 2 percent of aggregate fluctuations in EM. 2. Country-spread shocks explain about 2 percent of aggregate fluctuations in EM 3. About 6 percent of movements in country spreads are explained by country-spread shocks. 4. US-interest-rate shocks affect domestic variables mostly through their effects on country spreads. 5. Domestic effects of world-interest-rate shocks are measured with significant uncertainty 6. The fact that country spreads respond to business conditions in EM exacerbates aggregate volatility in the region. 7. The US-interest-rate shocks and country-spread shocks identified in this paper are plausible in the sense that they imply similar business cycles in the context of an empirical VAR model as they do in the context of a theoretical dynamic general equilibrium model of the emerging economy. 2
