Abstract
The inflation process in Turkey is investigated utilizing the multivariate cointegration model that is based on the joint analysis of long-run and short-run behavior. Excess demand in each sector--monetary, government, international and labor--as measured by the deviation from the long-run equilibrium is allowed to potentially effect the inflation rate. Excess demand in the government sector is found to be the main determinant of the Turkish inflation rate. Thus, a rate policy implication is that inflation could be reduced rapidly by eliminating the fiscal deficit. Copyright 1995 by Blackwell Publishing Ltd

Modeling Inflation in Australia

TL;DR: In this article, an empirically constant, data-coherent, error-correction model for inflation in Australia is developed, where the level of consumer prices is a markup over domestic and import costs, with adjustments for dynamics and relative aggregate demand.

General-to-specific Modeling: An Overview and Selected Bibliography

TL;DR: The theory of reduction is reviewed, the approach of general-to-specific modeling is summarized, and the econometrics of model selection are discussed, noting that general- to- specific modeling is the practical embodiment of reduction.

Modelling UK inflation, 1875–1991

TL;DR: In this article, a model of UK inflation is presented, which is modelled as responding to excess demands from all sectors of the economy: goods and services, factors of production, money, financial assets, foreign exchange, and government deficits.

The relationship between inflation and the budget deficit in Turkey

TL;DR: In this paper, the empirical relationship between inflation and the budget deficit for the Turkish economy was analyzed by a multivariate cointegration analysis, which showed that the scaled budget deficit significantly affects inflation in Turkey.

Autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity with estimates of the variance of United Kingdom inflation

Robert F. Engle
- 01 Jul 1982 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a new class of stochastic processes called autoregressive conditional heteroscedastic (ARCH) processes are introduced, which are mean zero, serially uncorrelated processes with nonconstant variances conditional on the past, but constant unconditional variances.

Statistical analysis of cointegration vectors

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider a nonstationary vector autoregressive process which is integrated of order 1, and generated by i.i.d. Gaussian errors, and derive the maximum likelihood estimator of the space of cointegration vectors and the likelihood ratio test of the hypothesis that it has a given number of dimensions.

Maximum likelihood estimation and inference on cointegration — with applications to the demand for money

TL;DR: In this paper, the estimation and testing of long-run relations in economic modeling are addressed, starting with a vector autoregressive (VAR) model, the hypothesis of cointegration is formulated as a hypothesis of reduced rank of the long run impact matrix.
