contribution to fluctuations in, the real exchange rate, output growth and inflation in four major economies over the past four … focused on inflation and output and the time-varying impact of monetary policy on these variables. In addition we generalise … as follows. The transmission of demand, supply and nominal shocks to the real exchange rate, output and inflation has …

We develop a model that can explain the evolution of trend inflation in the United States in the three decades before … inflation arises endogenously and has these determinants: the strength with which the central bank responds to inflation, the … degree of uncertainty about monetary policy perceived by the private sector, and, if it exists, the inflation target.

Market-based measures of inflation expectations can be derived either from the difference between yields on nominal and … inflation-linked government bonds or from inflation swap rates.

This paper uses a ‘trendy' approach to understand UK inflation dynamics. It focuses on the time series to isolate a low …-frequency and slow-moving component of inflation (the trend) from deviations around this trend. We find that this slow-moving trend … explains a substantial share of UK inflation dynamics. International prices are significantly correlated with the short …
