Inflation Targeting during Financial Crisis in Visegrád Group Countries

Original language description

This paper analyses changes of monetary policy impact on inflation during financial crisis in Visegrád group (V4) countries. Main objective of central banks function in V4 countries lies in maintaining price stability. Central bank does not have a direct impact on ultimate goals. Therefore, any monetary policy analysis and assumption of its effectiveness comes out from essential existence of a working transmission mechanism. The aim of this paper is to prove whether a disruption of transmission mechanism, when the inflation rate in future should be influenced by key interest rate, has occurred or not. Next, there is a question whether this relations disruption is a general phenomenon affecting all similar economics systems of Visegrád group countries or it is a phenomenon presented only under local terms. Causality between an inflation rate and base interest rates is tested. The analysis consists in comparing models for before-crisis-and during-crisis-data, respectively. Granger causality is tested for both sub-models and the entire dataset. We found out that causation of monetary policy instruments on a growth of price level has been changed by coming up of financial crisis. In other words, a change of structure was identified.
