High trend inflation and passive monetary detours
(26.02.2018)
Bank of Finland Research Discussion Papers 6/2018

According to the long-run Taylor principle (Davig and Leeper, 2007), a central bank can deviate to a passive monetary policy and still obtain equilibrium uniqueness if a sufficiently aggressive monetary policy is expected ...
Estimating the real effects of uncertainty shocks at the zero lower bound
(01.02.2017)
Bank of Finland Research Discussion Papers 6/2017
Bank of Finland Research Discussion Papers 6/2017
We employ a parsimonious nonlinear Interacted-VAR to examine whether the real effects of uncertainty shocks are greater when the economy is at the Zero Lower Bound. We find the contractionary effects of uncertainty shocks ...

This paper develops a wavelet-based control system model that can be used to simulate fiscal and monetary strategies in an open economy context in the time-frequency domain. As the emphasis on real exchange rate stability ...
The age-structure–inflation puzzle

Bank of Finland Research Discussion Papers 4/2016
Bank of Finland Research Discussion Papers 4/2016
We uncover a puzzling link between low-frequency inflation and the population age-structure: the young and old (dependents) are inflationary whereas the working age population is disinflationary. The relationship is not ...
