After the introduction of a stabilization program Israeli inflation decreased from 400% in 1985 to 2% in 2013. This … process is defined by three clear steps of high, medium and low inflation. The break dates are in line with major economic …

In this paper we report results on inflation persistence using 79 inflation series covering the EU countries, the euro … area and the US for five different inflation variables. The picture that emerges is one of moderate inflation persistence … across the board. In particular we find euro area inflation persistence to be broadly in line with US inflation persistence …

We analyze the impact of price stability-oriented monetary strategies (inflation targeting — IT — and constraining … exchange rate arrangements) on inflation persistence using a time-varying coefficients framework in a panel of 68 countries … (1993–2013). We show that explicit IT has a stronger effect on taming inflation persistence than implicit IT and is …

Is inflation persistence in the new EU Member States (NMS) comparable to that in the euro area countries? We argue that … show that due to frequent breaks in inflation time series in the NMS, parametric statistical measures assuming a constant …-varying mean leads to the reversal of this result and suggests similar or lower inflation persistence for the NMS compared to euro …

This paper reports a two-stage analysis of inflation persistence using monthly data from 11 IT countries and, for … comparison, the US, a non IT country with a history of credible monetary policy. First, we estimate inflation persistence in a … inflation persistence. We use the sequences of estimated persistence measures from the first stage as dependent variables in the …
