Abstract

This study investigates the impact of Inflation Targeting (IT) on real economic growth and real economic growth volatility for a panel of 36 emerging economies from 1979 to 2009. The results suggest that although IT regime results in higher economic growth, it does not necessarily guarantee a more stable growth rate.
