Amstad, Marlene and Huan, Ye and Ma, Guonan (2014) Developing an underlying inflation gauge for China. Bruegel Working Paper 2014/11, 9 October 2014. [Working Paper]
Abstract
This paper develops a new underlying inflation gauge (UIG) for China which differentiates between trend and noise, is available daily and uses a broad set of variables that potentially influence inflation. Its construction follows the works at other major central banks, adopts the methodology of a dynamic factor model that extracts the lower frequency components as developed by Forni et al (2000) and draws on the experience of the People’s Bank of China in modelling inflation.
