We evaluate the dynamics of a small and open economy under alternative simple rules for different monetary-policy instruments, in a model with imperfectly anchored expectations. The inflation-targeting consensus is that interest-rate rules are preferred, instead of using either a monetary...

This paper assesses the challenges that the lack of credibility poses for the implementation of inflation targeting, and for the design of inflation stabilization processes in emerging market economies. We also discuss the role that credibility has played in rationalizing the main elements of...
