| Tiivistelmä: | This paper considers the optimal approach to reducing inflation when the cost of inflation is its conditional variability. Inflation is stochastically related to money growth, with unobservable time-varying autonomous and indirect components. A sharp reduction in money growth provides information about responsiveness of inflation to money, but also induces variability as the economy heads into unknown territory. The model explains why moderate-inflation countries adopt a much more gradual money growth reduction than high-inflation countries. |
