Abstract:
Keeping inflation low and stable is one of the ultimate objectives of all modern Central Banks. The adverse negative effects of high inflation are well known: welfare cost of the society, obstruction to the signaling role of relative price changes that leads to resource misallocation, greater deterioration of the purchasing power of the poor and more importantly, lower long-term economic growth. Because of all these reasons, low and stable inflation is considered as an integral part of Macroeconomic stability.
