This paper estimates trend inflation for Brazil, using a model of
unobserved components and stochastic volatility. The model allows a
flexible dynamics between trend inflation and survey inflation expectations.
Estimated trend inflation has been on a downward trend since
2017, and has not been significantly affected by the surge in inflation
following the Covid-19 outbreak. |
