In the last decades, many developing countries abandoned their existing policy regimes and adopted inflation targeting (IT) by which they aimed to control inflation through the use of policy interest rates. During the period before the crisis, most of these countries experienced large...

Refet Gürkaynak, Brian Sack, and Eric Swanson (2005) provide empirical evidence that long forward nominal rates are overly sensitive to monetary policy shocks, and that this is consistent with a model where long-term inflation expectations are not anchored because agents must infer the central...

Emerging economies with inflation targets (IT) face a dilemma between fulfilling the theoretical conditions of strict IT, which imply a fully flexible exchange rate, or applying a flexible IT, which entails a de facto managed floating exchange rate with FX interventions to moderate exchange rate...

This study analyses the aspect of inflation expectations management in the context of inflation targeting by particularly focusing on the impact of exchange rate pass-through to inflation expectations in a small open economy. We also augment the inflation expectations function with GDP,...
