Monetary Policy and the Great Inflation: A Multi-Country Time-Varying Analysis Using the Taylor Rule
This paper is motivated by the observation that the Great Inflation, i.e., the high and volatile inflation that developed in the mid 1960s and lasted for almost twenty years, was an international phenomenon. Given that observation, we argue that an explanation for the Great Inflation should be consistent with the timing of the events in many developed countries, and not only with the US. We pro...
متن کاملAdaptive Least Squares Estimation of the Time-Varying Taylor Rule
Clarida, Galí and Gertler (CGG 2000), Orphanides and Williams (2005), Kim and Nelson (2006), and others have found time variation in the Fed’s “Taylor Rule” interest rate policy response function. CGG arbitrarily break their period into two fixedcoefficient 20-year subperiods, however, rather than letting the data tell them when and if any shift in the coefficients occurred. They also proxy the...
متن کاملEstimating a Taylor Rule for New Zealand with a time-varying neutral real rate
1 2 Many critics of the Taylor rule claim that it is inferior to inflation forecast based (IFB) rules because it is not forward-looking, is not aggressive enough, and because of uncertainty surrounding the output gap. Nevertheless, the Taylor rule serves a constructive purpose because it abstracts from the Bank’s macroeconomic model, FPS, and its performance is robust across various economic mo...
متن کاملModeling and Forecasting Iranian Inflation with Time Varying BVAR Models
This paper investigates the forecasting performance of different time-varying BVAR models for Iranian inflation. Forecast accuracy of a BVAR model with Litterman’s prior compared with a time-varying BVAR model (a version introduced by Doan et al., 1984); and a modified time-varying BVAR model, where the autoregressive coefficients are held constant and only the deterministic components are allo...
متن کاملAsymmetric Behavior of Inflation in Iran: New Evidence on Inflation Persistence Using a Smooth Transition Model
T his paper investigates the asymmetric behavior of inflation. We use logistic smooth transition autoregressive (LSTAR) model to characterize the regime-switching behavior of Iran’s monthly inflation during the period May 1990 to December 2013. We find that there is a triple relationship between the inflation level, its fluctuations and persistence. The findings imply that the behavi...
