Abstract
⺠We model the effect of large real depreciations on investment in dollarized economies. ⺠In the presence of dollarized liabilities, a nonlinear investment function results. ⺠Large depreciations have negative impact on investment through balance-sheet effects. ⺠We show empirical evidence of such nonlinearity in a large panel of countries.
