Abstract
In this paper the author empirically examines the effects of both money growth and interest rate volatility measures upon the demand for real balances. The findings of this study suggest that both money growth and interest rate volatility measures are statistically insignificant. However, evidence suggests a structural shift in the demand for money in the post-1979 period. Moreover, there is a noticeable change in the speed of adjustment moving from actual to desired real balances with the adjustment coefficient in the post-1979 period increasing roughly in magnitude nine and half, times the adjustment coefficient in the pre-1979 period.
