Abstract: Based on the Brazilian data, this paper shows empirical evidence regarding the effect of central banker type (weak or strong) on the content of survey-based and market-based inflation expectations for explaining realized inflation. The findings indicate that the content of survey-based and market-based inflation expectations explaining the realized inflation is sensitive to the central banker type.
