This paper examines the long-term relationship between economic growth and inequality in the UK using an endogenous growth model with heterogeneous agents. The model links entrepreneurial incentives to individual wealth, showing how wealth distribution endogenously influences growth. Estimation...

In this paper we model monthly UK inflation and find that there is some small but significant autocorrelation, particularly at 12 months. We find that this autocorrelation in monthly inflation leads to significant persistence in the headline annual inflation figure. A one-off shock to monthly...

We implement a quantitative empirical test of the fiscal theory of the price level (FTPL) model via indirect inference, comparing it to a standard New Keynesian model. The FTPL alternative creates a serious instability problem because it triggers a 'doom loop'in which inflation pushes up...
