Abstract

The empirical literature on the transmission of monetary policy to inflation in Italy has stressed the importance of the exchange rate and, to some extent, of the demand channel; recently, the roles of inflation expectations and the fiscal situation have been emphasized. This paper uses vector auto-regression to address this issue. The results suggest that inflation expectations do matter as determinants of inflation, along with the exchange rate and demand.
