When analyzing the demand for money in high inflation processes it has been suggested [Tourinho (1995)] that we should … consider not only the effects of changes in the expected inflation rate but also changes in the expected variability of … inflation. The model in Lima & Ehlers (1993) is extended here to deal more accurately with the uncertainty produced by the …

It uses a … generalized functional form and includes the variance of the inflation rate as an explanatory variable, and is estimated for ….

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 …
