We introduce a dynamic panel threshold model to shed new light on the impact of inflation on long-term economic growth … industrialized countries, our results confirm the inflation targets of about 2% set by many central banks. For non …-industrialized countries, we estimate that inflation hampers growth if it exceeds 17%. Below this threshold, however, the impact of inflation …

Recent monetary search models emphasize that the real effects of inflation via its impact on price dispersion depend on … the level of search costs and, thus, on the level of market integration. For less integrated markets, the inflation …-price dispersion nexus is predicted to be asymmetrically V-shaped which implies an optimal inflation rate above zero. For highly …

systematically understated. The effect rests on overstated inflation estimates due to imputed prices for disappearing goods and …

monetary policy reduces the persistence of inflation. Taking into account the fractional integration of inflation, we confirm … that inflation dynamics differed considerably across Euro area countries before the start of EMU. Since 1999, however …, results obtained from panel estimation indicate that the degree of long run inflation persistence has converged. In line with …

Our paper studies the relationship between money growth and consumer price inflation in the euro area using wavelet … analysis. Wavelet analysis allows to account for variations in the money growth-inflation relationship both across the … frequency spectrum and across time. We find evidence of strong comovements between money growth and inflation at low frequencies …

A major challenge for monetary policy has been predicting how exchange rate movements will impact inflation. We propose …

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 …
