This paper provides a toolkit for extracting accurate information about inflation expectations using inflation …-linked bonds. First, we show how to estimate term structures of zero-coupon real rates and break-even inflation rates (BEIRs) in … the euro area. This improves the analysis of developments in inflation expectations by providing constant maturity …

How do people understand business-cycle comovements of macro-finance variables? I develop an empirical and theoretical framework to investigate people’s mental models, extending the univariate Coibion and Gorodnichenko (2015) regression to address multivariate relations. Forecast revisions of...

We study the role of the cost of inflation channel in determining the risk premium in a (nonlinear) New Keynesian DSGE … model. Relying on a Calvo (or Rotemberg) price setting, we show that while the cost of inflation channel generates the …

This paper develops a DSGE model which explains variation in the nominal and real term structure along with inflation … time-varying term premia. We find a fall in nominal term premia during the 1990's which mainly is due to lower inflation … production costs, positive investment shocks, and a more aggressive response to inflation by the Bank of England …

We use a joint model of macroeconomic and term structure dynamics to estimate inflation risk premia in the United … inflation and interest rate expectations at various future horizons, as well as term structure data from both nominal and index …-linked bonds. Our results show that, in both currency areas, inflation risk premia are relatively small, positive, and increasing …
