Inflation Expectations in Ukraine: A Long Path to Anchoring?

Journal Title: Visnyk of the National Bank of Ukraine - Year 2015, Vol 0, Issue 233

Abstract

We study survey data of inflation and exchange rate expectations in Ukraine. These data are available for households, firms and professional forecasters. We document some unique properties of these data as well as some limitations and discuss the longer run prospects for inflation expectations in Ukraine given the National Bank of Ukraine’s desire to adopt an inflation target in the future.
