LANTERI, Luis N.. Terms of Trade and Twin Deficits: Evidence for Argentina. rlde [online]. 2015, n.23, pp.9-26. ISSN 2074-4706.
This paper investigates the validity of the twin deficits hypothesis (fiscal and external), in the case of a small country like Argentina. Paper analyzes, through VEC models (error correction model), the long-run relationship between current account, budget deficit (or surplus), investment and terms of trade for the period 1993-2012. Results suggest that increases in the fiscal deficit and investment deteriorate current account balance. Moreover, fiscal balance anticipate (Granger causality) to the current account and investment, but not the reverse.
