We study inflation dynamics in Colombia using a bottom-up Phillips curve approach. This allows us to capture the … different drivers of individual inflation components. We find that the Phillips curve is relatively flat in Colombia but steeper … dynamics are important for non-tradable goods. We show that besides allowing for a more detailed understanding of inflation …

This paper examines whether expansionary credit policy can help sustain output growth in transition economies, with particular reference to Ukraine’s experience since 1992. We find that, while real credit growth is indeed associated with higher output growth, an increase in the growth rate of...

This paper examines the recent behavior of core inflation in the United States. We specify a simple Phillips curve … based on the assumptions that inflation expectations are fully anchored at the Federal Reserve’s target, and that labor …-market slack is captured by the level of shortterm unemployment. This equation explains inflation behavior since 2000, including …
