Abstract

This document is a first approach, based on the uruguayan experience, to the relationship between the rate of inflation and its uncertainty. It aims to assess whether the empirical evidence supports the usual belief that higher inflation rates are more difficult to predict. Our estimates allow to build a time profile for period-to-period uncertainty during the last two decades. The analysis of causality supports the usual assumption that higher rates of inflation cause -in Granger’s sense- higher levels of uncertainty.
