SECTORAL PERSISTENCE OF TURKISH INFLATION RATES

Abstract

Purpose- Persistence of inflation refers to the speed of convergence of inflation to the long term mean after a shock. As the speed of convergence to the long run value is not high, monetary policy makers have to respond aggressively to decrease the effects of that shock. Therefore, the degree of inflation persistence should be determined correctly to take the right policy application.

Methodology- Persistence of inflation in CPI and PPI series is investigated by using the sum of the autoregressive coefficients of a univariate model with breaks in the mean of inflation in this study.

Findings- When we investigated persistence of CPI and PPI series and subgroups with breaks in inflation, we find inflation persistence is much lower in all groups.

Conclusion- However, the persistence of inflation has decreased after adopting the inflation targeting policy, this decrease in persistence has not reduced the persistence in the whole period to low levels.
