Annual inflation
During the history of the Riksbank, from 1668 to today, the annual inflation was on average 2.1-2.3 percent (the exact figure depends on how inflation is measured in relation to the monetary disorder during the second half of the 1710s). This can be compared to the present inflation target of the Riksbank at 2.0 percent.

An important task of economic research is to provide models, tools and analyses for the fulfillment of the Riksbank’s responsibilities.

Moreover, it will teach how to solve and simulate models with incomplete markets and aggregate uncertainty and how to use Dynare in this framework. The course will be given in two blocks: 3,4 and 5 May and 3-4 June. Read more
