The NATREX is a model of the equilibrium real exchange rate, which is where the real exchange rate is heading. The NATREX model has two components: the long-run equilibrium real exchange rate and the dynamics of adjustment of the medium-run equilibrium to the long-run equilibrium. In the medium-run equilibrium, the ratio of the external debt/GDP is predetermined, and the real exchange rate is associated with both internal and external balance. The real exchange rate and debt ratio are endogenous variables. In full stock-flow equilibrium, the long run equilibrium real exchange rate and external debt ratio depend upon the vector of time varying fundamentals, which are productivity and thrift in the country relative to the rest of the world.Less

This chapter describes a specific theoretical framework for the macroeconomic modelling of a small open economy, emphasizing stock-flow equilibria, accounting identities, and arbitrage conditions. It describes how the framework can be embedded within a macroeconometric model, noting the testable restrictions on the long-run relations suggested by the theory.Less
