Abstract

ABSTRACT The dynamic of money velocity has changed gradually, influencing how macroeconomic shocks affect money velocity. This paper examines the response of money velocity to the external shocks in a system of equations, where money velocity, real output growth, money growth volatility, expected inflation, and risk premium are jointly determined. The regime-switching behaviour of money velocity is then examined through a Bayesian threshold approach. The main finding suggests that money velocity drops significantly after negative output and expected inflation shocks, followed by a sudden increase. In addition, the regime-switching process distinguishes the deterministic and stochastic behaviour of money velocity.
