Chapter 1 in Inflation Targeting in MENA Countries, 2011, pp 1-14 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Inflation targeting (IT) has become a popular monetary policy strategy since it was adopted by New Zealand in 1989. In the Middle East and North Africa IT has already been introduced by Turkey and is being considered, more or less seriously, in three other countries: Egypt, Morocco and Tunisia. This book is intended to consider the issues surrounding the adoption of IT in these countries, against a background of monetary and financial developments in Middle East and North Africa (MENA) countries more widely.1
