Bu görüşe göre, para arzındaki beklenmeyen ve sürekli bir değişimin uzun dönemde reel GSYİH üzerinde hiçbir etkisi yoktur. Bu da para politikalarının etkin olmadığı anlamına gelmektedir. Bu çalışma seçilen 12 ülke için 1980-2015 verileri kullanılarak yapılan analizle Paranın Yansızlığı Hipotezinin test etmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Elde edilen sonuçlar, seçilen ülkelerde paranın yansız olduğunu ortaya koymaktadır.
