Resumo: Based on the Post-Keynesian theory, we investigate the relationship between the Brazilian Real exchange rate behavior and the Brazilian Central Bank swap interventions over 2002-2015. Initially, we analyze open market economy properties and present theoretical propositions on the exchange rate determination, highlighting features of the Brazilian foreign exchange market and of Brazil’s position in the international monetary system. Then, we undertake empirical exams on the nominal and real-effective exchange rates determination using two statistical methods. In order to measure the volatility of the mentioned exchange rates, we estimate ARCH/ GARCH models, which reported volatility during 2002-2015. Furthermore, to measure the variance of exchange rates in relation to swaps, we estimate a VAR model. The relationship found is that swaps are responses to the behavior of the nominal exchange rate, although its effects are more noticed on the real effective exchange rate.

Investiga-se, à luz da teoria pós-keynesiana, o comportamento da taxa de câmbio no Brasil face as intervenções com swaps cambiais do Banco Central de 2002 a 2015. Analisam-se as propriedades de uma economia aberta, as condicionantes da taxa de câmbio, o mercado cambial e a inserção do Brasil no sistema monetário internacional. Afere-se empiricamente o comportamento cambial frente às operações swap por meio de modelos ARCH/GARCH e VAR. Com os primeiros, observa-se a volatilidade das taxas de câmbio nominal e real efetiva, cujos resultados apontam presença de volatilidade no período. Em seguida, realizam-se estimações VAR, para estudar a variância das taxas de câmbio ante os swaps e variáveis relevantes ao comportamento cambial, concluindo-se que os swaps são respostas ao comportamento da taxa de câmbio nominal, embora seus efeitos são mais visíveis sobre a taxa de câmbio real efetiva.
