The paper develops robust measures of core inflation for Vietnam that can be used in policy making. These core … inflation measures (CIMs) are based on an analytical evaluation of the inflation process in Vietnam, and use a filtering … better. Among TMMs, 'one trim does not fit all periods'; periods of high and variable inflation require larger trims, and …
