We analyse the interaction between private agents? uncertainty about inflation target and the central bank's data … uncertainty. In our model, private agents update their perceived inflation target and the central bank estimates unobservable … economic shocks as well as the perceived inflation target. Under those two uncertainties, the learning process of both private …

inflation risk. We calculate the term structure of inflation uncertainty in New Keynesian models when the monetary authority … achieves equilibria with substantially lower long-run inflation risk. With either sticky prices or sticky wages, a price path … target reduces the variance of inflation by an order of magnitude more than it increases the variability of the output gap …

We investigate the relationship between inflation uncertainty and monetary policy transmission in the U.S. economy … through the external finance premium and the term structure of interest rates appears strongly dependent on inflation …

average markups along with monetary policy play a role in the transmission of household uncertainty to inflation. These …

In New Keynesian models favourable cost-push shocks lower inflation and increase output. Yet, when the central bank …'s inflation target is not perfectly observed these shocks turn contractionary as agents erroneously perceive a temporary reduction …

policy rate will become constrained in the future lowers today's inflation by creating tail risk in future inflation and thus … reducing expected inflation. In an empirically rich model calibrated to match key features of the U.S. economy, we find that … the tail risk induced by the ELB causes inflation to undershoot the target rate of 2 percent by as much as 50 basis points …

We examine how the interaction between monetary policy and macroeconomic conditions affects inflation uncertainty in the … long-term. The unobservable inflation uncertainty is quantified by means of the slowly evolving long-term variance component … of inflation in the framework of the Spline-GARCH model (Engle and Rangel, 2008). For a cross-section of 13 developed …
