Description
Summary:This paper estimates a model of financial markets in Colombia to examine: 1) the authorities' control over domestic interest rates and the money stock; and 2) the effects of the crawling peg exchange rate policy on exchange rate expectations and domestic interest rates.

The expected rate of depreciation is not closely linked to the crawling peg.
