Abstract: In this paper, the authors report a demand function for M4 which is identified as the key broad aggregate in the current U.K. financial environment. They estimate dynamic equations over the period 1968-92, which impose long-run elasticities obtained from the Johansen maximum likelihood procedure in terms of the now familiar two-stage approach to modeling cointegrated time series. The results indicate that properly specified demand functions yield significant interest rate effects in both the long-run solutions and the short-run dynamics. Furthermore, notwithstanding the institutional changes in the financial sector over the data period, the estimated equation yields stable parameter estimates.
