Abstract

The outbreak of the conflict in the Middle East occurred during the data collection phase of the Banque de France survey on firms’ inflation expectations, providing a unique opportunity to observe business leaders’ assessments “in real time. In the first days of the conflict, they revised their short-term inflation expectations upwards, while their longer-term expectations were less affected. Le conflit au Moyen-Orient est survenu pendant la collecte de l’enquête de la Banque de France sur les anticipations d’inflation des chefs d’entreprise, offrant une occasion unique d’observer « à chaud » leur appréciation. Sur les premiers jours de guerre, ils révisent à la hausse leurs anticipations d’inflation à court terme tandis que leurs anticipations à plus long terme sont moins affectées.
