Government spending and the real exchange rate: sensitivity to intersectoral adjustment costs; ReferencesGovernment spending on infrastructure has recently increased sharply in many emerging-market economies. This paper examines the mechanism through which public infrastructure spending affects the dynamics of the real exchange rate. Using a two-sector dependent open economy model with intersectoral adjustment costs, we show that government spending generates a non-monotonic U-shaped adjustment path for the real exchange rate with sharp intertemporal trade-offs. The effect of government spending on the real exchange rate depends critically on (i) the composition of public spending, (ii) the underIMF Working PapersForeign exchange ratesFiscal policyGovernment spending policyElectronic books.Foreign exchange rates.Fiscal policy.Government spending policy.Chatterjee Santanu497920Mursagulov Azer996786International Monetary Fund.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910452793403321Fiscal policy and the real exchange rate2285405UNINA
