Inflation did not fall as much as many economists expected as the Great Recession hit the US economy. One explanation suggested for this phenomenon is that the Phillips curve has become flatter. In this paper we investigate the stability of the US Phillips curve, employing Bayesian VARs to...

We use Bayesian techniques to estimate bivariate VAR models for Swedish unemployment rate and inflation. Employing quarterly data from 1995Q1 to 2017Q3 and new tools for model selection, we compare a model with time-varying parameters and stochastic volatility to a specification with constant...

We assess the bivariate relation between money growth and inflation in the euro area and the United States using hybrid time-varying parameter Bayesian VAR models. Model selection based on marginal likelihoods suggests that the relation is statistically unstable across time in both regions. The...
