The aim of paper to search whether there is a change in relationship between inflation rate and domestic economic activity in Turkey and to test whether an increase in the level of globalization has an impact on this changing. The findings point out that the slope of Phillips Curve has declined...

This study analyzes long-term relation between inflation and relative price variability in Turkey. Vector autoregressive moving average (VARMA) models are used as analyzing methodolgy. Data base taken into consideration in models are monthly wholesale price index and monthly commodity price...

We argue that relative price changes are a key component of the Phillips curve relationship between inflation and output. Building on work by Ball and Mankiw, we propose including measures of the variances and skewness of relative price adjustment in an otherwise standard model of the Phillips...

The extent to which the stock market provides a hedge to investors against inflation is examined for African stock markets. By employing parametric and nonparametric cointegration procedures, we show that the point estimates of the elasticities of stock prices with respect to consumer prices...

This paper investigates the effect of the inflation thresholds on growth in post-1980 period in Turkey. A bivariate non-linear model, Smooth Transition Regression (STR), is used to find these thresholds. The estimated STR model for Turkey shows that there are two thresholds and three seperate...

We study the extent of global inflation synchronization using a dynamic factor model in a large set of countries over a half century. Our methodology allows us to account for differences across groups of countries (advanced economies and emerging market and developing economies) and to analyze...

Emerging market and developing economies (EMDEs) have experienced an extraordinary decline in inflation since the early 1970s. After peaking in 1974 at 17.3 percent, inflation in these economies declined to 3.5 percent in 2017. Despite a checkered history of managing inflation among many EMDEs,...
