We propose and implement a method that provides quantitative estimates of the extent to which higher-than-expected infl ation can lower the real value of outstand- ing government debt. Looking forward, we derive a formula for the debt burden that relies on detailed information about debt...

This paper proposes a new method to measure the impact of inflation on the real value of public debt. The distribution of debt debasement is based on two inputs: the distribution of privately-held nominal debt by maturity, for which we provide new estimates, and the distribution of risk-adjusted...

We compare the degree of anchoring of inflation expectations in the euro area, the United States and the United Kingdom, focusing on the post-crisis period. First of all, we estimate a set of measures of average and tail correlation using inflation swaps and options, following Natoli and...

We analyze the degree of anchoring of inflation expectations in the euro area during the post-crisis period, with a focus on the time span from 2014 onwards when long-term beliefs have substantially drifted away from the policy target. Using a new estimation technique, we look at tail...

Eine lange Periode niedriger Zinsen und wachsender Zentralbankbilanzen hat nicht nur mehr Staatsausgaben, sondern auch hohe Vermögens- und schließlich Konsumentenpreisinflation nach sich gezogen. Gleichzeitig sind eine dichtere Regulierung, wachsende Tendenzen zu Deglobalisierung und...

New regulatory data reveal extensive price discrimination against non-financialclients in the FX derivatives market. The client at the 90th percentile pays aneffective spread of 0.5%, while the bottom quarter incur transaction costs of lessthan 0.02%. Consistent with models of search frictions...
