The purpose of this study is to examine whether we can identify a Phillips curve fit for the Kingdom of Eswatini as a … strong support for concave shaped unemployment-gap and output-gap based Phillips curve specifications. Given the specific … form of concavity discovered in the Phillips curves, the low inflation rate experienced over the last couple of decades can …
