Abstract
Este documento estima para Mexico el modelo de Sargent, Williams y Zha (2009) en el cual la inflacion se determina a partir de deficits fiscales financiados mediante expansiones monetarias, asi como por las expectativas de inflacion. La estimacion del modelo sugiere que la evolucion historica de los deficits fiscales es clave para explicar la dinamica de la inflacion en Mexico. Hasta antes de la autonomia del Banco de Mexico en abril de 1994, el modelo sugiere que la monetizacion de estos deficits habria determinado la dinamica de la inflacion en Mexico. Posteriormente, se encuentra evidencia que sugiere la presencia de canales indirectos a traves de los cuales los deficits fiscales via ajustes en la prima por riesgo soberano y en el tipo de cambio nominal aun han tenido cierto impacto sobre las expectativas de inflacion. Esto ultimo resalta la importancia de la disciplina fiscal, en adicion a la autonomia del Banco Central, para preservar un entorno de estabilidad de precios. CONSIDERATIONS REGARDING FISCAL POLICY AND INFLATION EXPECTATIONS IN MEXICO ABSTRACT This document estimates the model of Sargent, Williams y Zha (2009) in which inflation is determined by fiscal deficits financed through monetary expansions as well as inflation expectations. The estimation of the model suggests that the historical evolution of fiscal deficits is key to explaining the dynamics of inflation in our country. Before the autonomy of the Bank of Mexico in April 1994, the model suggests that the monetization of these deficits would have determined the dynamics of inflation in Mexico. Subsequently, evidence is found that suggests the presence of indirect channels through which fiscal deficits via adjustments in the sovereign risk premium and in the nominal exchange rate have still had some impact on inflation expectations. The latter highlights the importance of fiscal discipline, in addition to the autonomy of the Central Bank, to preserve an environment of price stability.
