Abstract :
This study examines the relationship between inflation and inflation uncertainty in China. We estimate a model with a GARCH specification for the conditional volatility of inflation in order to distinguish between structural and impulse uncertainty. Our analysis suggests that the monetary authorities may be able to eliminate much of the costs associated with high inflation by following well-understood policy rules.
