long run Phillips curve recorded -0.75 in Sweden and -0.23 in the United States. While the average inflation rate in the … United States was very close to its targeted level, the average inflation rate in Sweden was 0.6 per- centage points below … its targeted level over the sample period. The deviation of inflation rate from its targeted level in Sweden resulted in …

This paper provides empirical evidence of the role of spatial factors on the determination of inflation dynamics for a … representative set of tradable commodities in Chile. We present a simple model that explains inflation divergence across regions in a … inflation while macroeconomic common factors do not play an important role in this process. Existing literature had obtained the …

The analysis is motivated by the disinflation performance of many inflation … episode price-setting firms' expect inflation to be highly persistent and opt for backward-looking indexation.

-run trade-offs between output and inflation: lower trend inflation flattens the Phillips curve and decreases steady-state output … by increasing markups. We show that the aggregator reduces both the steady-state welfare cost of higher trend inflation … and the inflation-related weight in a model-based welfare function for higher trend inflation. Consequently, optimal trend …

Brazil has experienced crucial changes in its inflation process since the adoption of inflation targeting in mid 1999 …. This article addresses changes in the analytical framework employed to track the inflation dynamics, specifically the … relevance of an explicit target for inflation.
