This paper introduces a new model of trend (or underlying) inflation. In contrast to many earlier approaches, which … allow for trend inflation to evolve according to a random walk, ours is a bounded model which ensures that trend inflation … model also allows for a time-varying degree of persistence in the transitory component of inflation. The bounds placed on …

inflation out-of-sample prediction and that the term structure of survey-based inflation forecasts has predictive power over the … path of future inflation changes. It then proposes some empirical explanations for the forecasting success of survey …-based inflation expectations. We show that SBE pool a large amount of heterogeneous information on inflation expectations and react …

The present paper compares expected inflation to (econometric) inflation forecasts based on a number of forecasting … expected inflation we develop a recursive filtering algorithm which extracts unexpected inflation from real interest rate data …, even in the presence of diverse risks and a potential Mundell-Tobin-effect. The extracted unexpected inflation is compared …
