Abstract

We investigate inflation convergence between the Euro Zone and its CEE partners using panel data methods that incorporate structural shifts. We find strong rejections of the unit root hypothesis, and therefore evidence of PPP, in the East-European countries for the 1995:1 to 2000:4 period.
