Therefore, the analysis of exchange and interests rates effects on the productive structure is truly important to understand a regions’ economic performance. Taking into consideration this scenario, the present study main objective is to analyze the impact of these two above mentioned variables on Paraná State external sectors between April of 2001 and December of 2006.
