Changing inflation dynamics, evolving monetary policy: an overview
Understanding the dynamics of inflation has become an important
challenge for both policymakers and researchers over the past decade.
Empirical models linking inflation and economic activity—versions of
the so-called Phillips curve—have failed to account for the behavior of
inflation in many ...
Compensación inflacionaria y premios por riesgo: evidencia para Chile
En economías con metas de inflación, como es el caso de Chile, el monitoreo constante por parte del Banco Central respecto de las expectativas de inflación al horizonte de política monetaria es un elemento de primer orden al momento de evaluar cómo el mercado incorpora en los precios de activos shocks ...
Trend, seasonal, and sectorial inflation in the Euro Area
A central focus of monetary policy is the underlying rate of inflation
that might be expected to prevail over a horizon of one or two years.
Because inflation is estimated from noisy data, the estimation of
this underlying rate of inflation, which we refer to as trend inflation,
requires statistical ...
An econometric analysis on survey-data-based anchoring of inflation expectations in Chile
To what extent are inflation expectations of public agents anchored to the Central Bank of Chile’s (CBC) inflation target? In this note, I perform several econometric testing procedures in an attempt to answer this question. Expectations’ anchoring is understood as another central bank instrument, in ...
The supply-side origins of U.S. inflation
In recent years, we have not seen much of a negative correlation
between inflation, the time series plotted in figure 1, and measures of
resource slack, based on real GDP plotted in figure 2. This flattening
of the Phillips curve in many countries across the world has startled
monetary policymakers. ...
International aspects of the zero lower bound constraint
Large negative aggregate demand shocks can drive down an economy’s equilibrium real interest rate and if the central bank is committed to stabilizing inflation monetary policy may be hampered by the zero lower bound on nominal interest rates –the economy may be in a 'liquidity trap.' The policy dilemma ...
Traspaso de tipo de cambio nominal a inflación desagregada en Chile
Una cuestión central para el manejo de la política monetaria en economías abiertas a flujos de bienes y servicios es entender cuál es la relación entre los movimientos del tipo de cambio nominal y el comportamiento de los precios locales. En particular, entender en qué medida, y a través de qué ...
Monetary policy in Chile: institutions objectives and instruments
Inflation seemed to be an endemic disease of the Chilean economy for most of the 20th century with its presence being felt even before the creation of the Central Bank in 1925. However things seemed to change drastically in the mid 1990s when the country began to experience a sustained process of ...
Inflation globally
The fortunes of the Phillips curve have ebbed and flowed ever
since it was proposed by Phillips (1958). Although its origins are
primarily as an empirical regularity, there is now a vast literature
that provides more formal justification. In recent times, the Great
Moderation and the modern era ...
Política monetaria en tiempos complejos
Durante los últimos años la economía chilena ha sufrido shocks importantes que han implicado un gran desafío para la conducción de la política monetaria. El fin del súper ciclo de las materias primas y condiciones financieras internacionales más estrechas junto con una caída importante en los niveles ...
