Abstract

The aim of the current study is to assess the households’ inflation inequality in Greece not only across different income groups but also across other households’ social and economics characteristics, such as, occupational status and household composition, among others, for a more recent period, which is that of 2009 – 2022. The picture that emerges from our results is that there are important inflation differences across different categories of households. More specifically, we find that the main discrepancies are evident at the different household income categories with the poorer household experiencing significant higher inflation. Other factors that lead to inflation gap across households include the size of the household, the profession of the lead member of the household, as well as, the composition of the household. Policy implications of these results are also discussed.
