Forecasting with the New Keynesian Phillips curve: Evidence from survey data

Author

  • Jean-Baptiste, Frédo

Abstract

This paper estimates the New Keynesian Phillips curve for United Kingdom using survey forecasts of inflation. I find that, compared to traditional estimation methods, survey forecasts improve estimates of the New Keynesian Phillips curve and forecasting performance of inflation.
