DETERMINANTS OF INDONESIA’S INCOME VELOCITY OF MONEY
Abstract
Using monthly time-series data and both short-and long-run models, our paper
examines the determinants of Indonesia’s income velocity of money. Our findings
suggest that in the long-run, tax revenue, short-term interest rate, industrial production
and, in the short-run, money demand, significantly determine income velocity of
money. Our analysis suggests that the effect on income velocity is mostly over the
long-run as most determinants are dormant in the short-run. The implication from a
policy perspective is that shocks are unlikely to burden income velocity over short time
horizons.
