What Inflation Rate Should Central Banks Target?
Inflation has made a comeback and is running hot in several countries. What are the social costs of too-high (or too-low) inflation? And what inflation rate minimises these costs? Professor Adam discusses the main determinants of the optimal inflation rate and provides an overview of the latest research findings in this area.
