In this work, we seek to investigate the existence of nonlinearities in the reaction function of the Central Bank of Brazil arising from this policymaker's uncertainties about the effects of the output gap on inflation. Theoretically, we follow Tillmann (2011) to obtain a nonlinear optimal...

In this paper we will discuss a demand-led growth model which is constrained by economic policy. In this way, we will incorporate an inflation targeting regime in the sraffian supermultiplier model in order to analyze how economic policy can influence the growth rate of productive capacity. We...

This paper investigates the extent of pass-through from the nominal exchange rate to import prices for a sample of nineteen African countries. The methodology is based on panel data cointegration testing. Using annual data extending back to 1971, long-run pass-through can be best described as a...
