Úroková elasticity poptávky po penězích: meta-analýza

Slouková, Eliška

Even though precise evaluation of money demand function is essential for cen- tral banking and for the right determination of the transmission mechanism, economists have not reached a consensus about the underlying determinants of money demand function neither their magnitude and direction. Researchers differ even in the selection of measures used for the main variables - income, and interest rate. While the heterogeneity in elasticity estimates of the former one has been scrutinize in several quantitative surveys, to the best of our knowledge, there has not been compiled any meta-analysis focusing on differences among the interest rate elasticities of the money demand. Therefore, we collected 53 studies reporting 1 094 estimates of interest rate elasticity. Implementing both the state-of-the-art methods and those proposed only recently, we have found out that researches are prone to selective reporting. Firstly, our results shows that negative publication bias is present in empirical studies of the money de- mand and increases the average elasticity estimate approximately three times (in absolute terms). Secondly, negative highly precise estimates are more likely to be compared to their imprecise counterparts. Additionally, we scrutinize po- tential sources of heterogeneity among individual...
