Inflation and Broadband Revisited. Evidence from an OECD Panel

Klaus Friesenbichler

No 527, WIFO Working Papers from WIFO

Abstract: This note revisits the conjecture that the use of broadband internet lowers transaction costs and thereby inflation. Using a macroeconomic panel of OECD countries, it roughly confirms previous findings reported by Yi and Choi (2005) by addressing conceptual and econometric issues.
