Fractional integration of inflation rates: a note

Author

Listed:
  • Paolo Zagaglia

Abstract

This note studies the persistence of CPI inflation for 12 OECD countries. The fraction order of integration is estimated through the wavelet-OLS estimator of Jensen (1999). The results show that CPI inflation is characterized by mean reversion in the long run with finite variance.
