This paper analyzes monetary policy in a model with a potential unanchoring of inflation expectations. The degree of … unanchoring is given by how sensitively the public’s long-run inflation expectations respond to inflation surprises. I find that … optimal policy moves the interest rate aggressively when expectations unanchor, allowing the central bank to accommodate …

Forward guidance operates via the expectations formation process of the agents in the economy. In standard quantitative … macroeconomic models, the expectations are unobserved state variables and little scrutiny is devoted to analysing the dynamic … behaviour of these expectations. We show that the introduction of survey and financial market-based forecasts in the estimation …

We show that, when private sector expectations are determined in line with adaptive learning, optimal policy responds … expectations resemble optimal policy under commitment and rational expectations. Nevertheless, it is clear that the mechanism at … play is very different. In the case of commitment it relies on expectations of future policy actions affecting inflation …

Rational expectations has been the dominant way to model expectations, but the literature has quickly moved to a more … their expectations. A standard assumption is that agents form expectations by using the correctly specified reduced form … included. Therefore, agents base expectations on a misspecified MSV solution. In contrast, we assume agents know the deep …
