Abstract: The main goal of this work is to investigate inflation determinants taking into account the role of exchange rate regimes, fiscal and monetary policy elements, and also to address the relevance of the international financial crisis and the adoption (or not) of inflation target. The analysis is developed for a set of 82 economies in the period of 1990-2009. The empirical results for the three periods analyzes (1990 to 2009, 1990 to 1999, and 2000 to 2009), focusing in understanding the relation between exchange rate regime and inflation reveals a nonconsensual pattern. The evidences also suggests the relevance of other variables for inflation, including money growth rate, government debt, changes in the real effective exchange rate, real interest rate and lagged inflation. An additional evidence indicates that inflation target countries are associated to lower inflation, but this result is restricted to the period of 1990 to 1999.
