| Abstract: | In this study Barro-Gordon model is modified so that a credibility-stabilization trade-off remains, also when a performance contract of the type envisaged by Walsh (1995) is imposed on the central bank governor. This is done by modeling a real interest rate bias along with the inflation bias. How inflation penalties may actually be imposed on a central bank, is discussed. Will "inflation targeting" bring a better resolution to the credibility-stabilization trade-off than the ERM, is also discussed. |
