Abstract

Monetary policy consists in part in managing inflation expectations of different agents. New US evidence on heterogeneous frequency of forecast revisions and disagreement among various categories of agents (households, firms, professional forecasters) suggests that targeting communication to specific groups could be a useful tool for central bankers. La politique monétaire consiste en partie à piloter les anticipations d’inflation des différents agents. De nouveaux éléments, issus de données américaines, sur la fréquence hétérogène de révision des prévisions et sur les désaccords au sein et entre diverses catégories d’agents suggèrent qu’un ciblage de la communication sur des groupes spécifiques pourrait être un précieux outil pour les banquiers centraux.
