International Evidenceon Tradables and Nontradables Inflation / Holger Wolf, Alberto Giovannini, Jose De Gregorio.

We identify a demand shift towards nontradables and faster growth of total factor productivity in the tradable goods sector as the prime causes of the differential inflation. In addition, disinflation attempts and the exchange rate regime appear to have exerted significant influence on the relative inflation rate. Mode of access: Internet De Gregorio, Jose.
