  • When all we have is not enough: a search for the optimal method of quantifying inflation expectations

    Publication

    - Economic Research-Ekonomska Istrazivanja - Year 2023

    Although inflation expectations are pivotal variables for central banks, they are not directly observable. Therefore, central banks use qualitative survey results to proxy consumer expectations, and their quantification in this manner is often criticized. In this study, we investigate and identify an optimal quantification procedure for survey results based on a set of regression and probabilistic models. Specifically, we seek...
