Credibility and inflation targeting in Chile
After a long history of high and volatile inflation, the Central Bank of Chile began implementing its monetary policy in the early 1990s by announcing yearly targets for inflation. This new framework was the first step toward a full-fledged inflation-targeting setup, although the Central Bank continued ...
New keynesian models for Chile in the inflation-targeting period
Dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) models with nominal rigidities have become a popular tool for monetary policy analysis in recent years. The basic sticky price model has been enriched to include additional sources of nominal and real rigidities. These additional elements have been introduced ...

Inflation targeting in Brazil: shocks, backward-looking prices, and IMF conditionality
In mid-January 1990, Brazil abandoned its crawling exchange rate band. Surprisingly enough, the country's economic performance in the aftermath of this episode was much better than expected, given the performance of other emerging market economies after a move toward floating. Despite the large ...

El modelo actual de proyección de inflación del Banco Central de Chile (BCCh) considera, además de la dinámica habitual, el efecto de dos brechas. Una refleja las holguras en los mercados de bienes y factores, las que se capturan mediante la diferencia entre el PIE efectivo y el PIB potencial. Esta ...
Inflation dynamics in a small open economy model under inflation targeting: some evidence from Chile
Following the influential work of Christiano, Eichenbaum, and Evans (2005) and Smets and Wouters (2003), many central banks are building and estimating dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) models with nominal rigidities and are using them for policy analysis. This new generation of sticky ...
Does inflation targeting make a difference?
Since New Zealand adopted inflation targeting in 1990, a steadily growing number of industrial and emerging economies have explicitly adopted an inflation target as their nominal anchor. Eight industrial countries and thirteen emerging economies had full-fledged inflation targeting in place in early ...
Monetary policy under inflation targeting
Inflation targeting cum exchange-rate floating has become the framework of choice in countries pursuing an independent and effective monetary policy. Since its adoption by New Zealand (1990) and Chile (1991), central banks of nearly 25 industrial and emerging economies have implemented an explicit ...
Inflation targeting: design, performance, challenges
Inflation rates fell markedly around the world during the last decade of twentieth century. This was the result of a profound change in the conduct of monetary policy, clearly driven by the strong, anti-inflationary stance adopted by central banks in industrial and developing countries. The central ...
