This paper studies inflation in small open economies with production networks. I show that production networks alter the elasticity of the consumer price index (CPI) to changes in sectoral technology, factor prices, and import prices. Sectors can import and export directly but also indirectly...

We analyze the transmission of producer price in inflation shocks across the U.S. manufacturing industries from 1947 to 2018 using the Diebold-Yilmaz Connectedness Index framework, which fully utilizes the information in generalized variance decompositions from vector autoregressions. The...

Using input-output models, we analyze the effect of removing subsidized oil products in Morocco. We set three scenarios of increasing oil products by 25%, 50% and 75%, and symmetric decreases by the same amounts. We show that the effects are high in intensive oil products sectors such as...

This paper investigates the relationship between input-output networks and the transmission of inflation shocks across manufacturing industries in South Korea, an economy that is open to external shocks. Using the dynamic inflation connectedness measures for 1971-2020, we show that production...

How fully and quickly do supply chains transmit commodity price movements into inflation? In a production network with sticky prices, we show that the network delays propagation of commodity price shocks to downstream firms. This result holds even if firms are forward-looking. In the long run,...

The post-pandemic surge in inflation was accompanied by a surge in the corporate share of profits. As a result, several economists and policy makers have given to it names such as "profit-led inflation" or "sellers' inflation." The present paper discusses the extent to which profit-led...

In the overlapping global emergencies of the pandemic, climate change and geopolitical confrontations, supply shocks have become frequent and inflation has returned. This raises the question how sector-specific shocks are related to overall price stability. This paper simulates price shocks in...
