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?

The policy dilemma ...
Sterilized foreign exchange interventions under inflation targeting
Inflation targeting needs exchange rate flexibility. If the policy interest rate is geared to achieving the inflation target the central bank must be willing to accept the resulting exchange rate. Simply put if the central bank has both an inflation target and an exchange rate target the private sector ...
Shocks de oferta persistentes: ¿un dolor de cabeza para los bancos centrales?
Entre los años 2007 y 2008, la economía Chilena experimentó severos shocks de costos (aumentos de los precios internacionales de los productos básicos, incrementos del costo de la energía, sequías), los que fueron más persistentes de lo que se pensaba cuando se iniciaron y llevaron la tasa de inflación ...
A decade of inflation targeting in the world: what do we know and what do we need to know?
The emergence of inflation targeting over the last ten years represents an exciting development in central banks' approach to the conduct of monetary policy. After initial adoption by New Zealand in 1990, a growing number of central banks in industrial and emerging economies have opted for inflation ...
