Resumo: The uncovered interest parity (UIP) declares that the arbitration will make that similar bonds in two different countries have the same net return. If a bond from one country pays a higher interest rate than the international interest rate, there is an expectation of depreciation of its currency and thus it is expected that the actual return of the bond converge to the international interest rate. However, in recent years, the Brazilian securities have paid an interest rate above the international interest rate and its currency has been appreciating against the dollar, making the actual return of the securities of the country bigger than the international. Therefore, in this study, we test the UIP to Brazilian economy between November 2001 and September 2007 – one period in which Brazil has adopted a floating exchange rate. A tool for testing are the ordinary least squares, adjusted for possible autocorrelation between the error terms. We test if the interest rate differential is statistically significant in the exchange rate change. In addition, we compare the process of formation of expectations about the exchange rate – rational expectations and survey from the Relatório Focus – on the UIP.

Se um título de um país paga uma taxa de juros maior do que a internacional há uma expectativa de depreciação da sua moeda e, assim, espera-se que o retorno real do título convirja para a taxa de juros internacional. Porém, nos últimos anos, os títulos brasileiros têm pagado uma taxa de juros acima da internacional e sua moeda vem se apreciando frente ao dólar, fazendo com que o retorno real dos títulos do país seja maior do que o internacional. Neste trabalho, buscamos testar, então, esta paridade para a economia brasileira durante o período de novembro de 2001 a setembro de 2007 – período no qual o Brasil já adotava o câmbio flutuante. Uma ferramenta para o teste são os mínimos quadrados ordinários, ajustados à possível autocorrelação entre os resíduos. Testa-se se o diferencial de juros é estatisticamente significativo na variação da taxa de câmbio. Além disso, compara-se o processo de formação das expectativas quanto ao câmbio – expectativas racionais e pesquisa do Relatório Focus – na verificação da PDJ.Universidade Federal do Rio Grande, FURG.
