Volatilidade Cambial e o Crescimento Económico: Um Estudo para os Países da OCDE

Abstract

A volatilidade cambial tem sido um fator crítico para as empresas e para as economias desde a adoção do regime de taxas de câmbio flutuantes por parte de alguns países, essencialmente na década 70, incorporando o risco cambial em diversas variáveis económicas e financeiras, e consequentemente afetando o crescimento económico. No entanto, a literatura sobre o tema ainda é marcada por controvérsias, não havendo um consenso sobre a influência que a volatilidade cambial tem no crescimento económico. O impacto em questão é suscetível de influenciar diversas variáveis económicas, nomeadamente, o comércio, a inflação e o investimento e consequentemente o crescimento económico.Este estudo procura contribuir para o conhecimento dos efeitos das variações cambiais, investigando a relação entre a volatilidade cambial e o crescimento económico, utilizando dados em painel dos países membros da OCDE no período de 1995 a 2022.Os resultados revelam que a volatilidade cambial tem um impacto negativo e significativo no crescimento económico, corroborando com a literatura existente. Além disso, verificou-se que as políticas governamentais têm uma relação positiva com o crescimento económico, enquanto o investimento demonstrou uma relação negativa com o mesmo. Este impacto negativo pode gerar diversas consequências económicas adversas, incluindo o aumento dos custos de importação e exportação, a pressão inflacionária sobre os preços e a criação de um ambiente de incerteza para os investidores. Neste sentido, os governos e autoridades monetárias, necessitam entender esses fenómenos para desenvolver políticas que estabilizem e incentivem o crescimento.

Exchange rate volatility has been a crucial factor for companies and economies since the adoption of the floating exchange rate regime by some countries, primarily in the 1970s. This has incorporated exchange rate risk into various economic and financial variables, subsequently affecting economic growth. However, the literature on the subject remains controversial, and there is no consensus on the impact of exchange rate volatility on economic growth. The effect in question is likely to influence several economic variables, including trade, inflation, and investment, and consequently, economic growth.This study seeks to contribute to the understanding of the effects of exchange rate fluctuations by investigating the relationship between exchange rate volatility and economic growth, using panel data from OECD member countries for the period 1995 to 2022.The results indicate that exchange rate volatility has a negative and significant impact on economic growth, corroborating existing literature. Additionally, government policies were found to have a positive relationship with economic growth, while investment showed a negative relationship with it. This negative impact can generate several adverse economic consequences, including increased import and export costs, inflationary pressure on prices, and the creation of an uncertain environment for investors. Therefore, governments and monetary authorities need to comprehend these phenomena to develop policies that stabilize and encourage growth.
