This paper studies the importance of money for inflation in the euro area. An inflation equation is derived from a … small model that combines the supply and demand for money with a Phillips curve and the assumption that inflation … expectations develop adaptively. The model's solution attributes an impact on inflation not to actual money growth but to its core …

We investigate the empirics of the persistence in the inflation series for 13 OECD countries that use an inflation … suggested by Kim and Phillips (2006, 2000) and Phillips (2007). We find that (i) inflation exhibits a fractional behavior over … the entire sample period and, in most cases, in the pre- and post-targeting periods, (ii) the adoption of inflation …

We address this question by examining the conditional dynamics of inflation and output growth in response to markup … shocks for 14 industrialized countries. Markup shocks create a trade-off between output gap and inflation stabilization … purposes, and the theory predicts that conditional on such shocks output growth should be more volatile than inflation in …

The aim of this study is to examine the relationship … between price stability and economic growth of the selected countries applying inflation targeting. We use threshold dynamic …
