Some Further Evidence on Interest-Rate Smoothing: The Role of Measurement Errors in the Output Gap

Mikael Apel and Per Jansson ()

No 178, Working Paper Series from Sveriges Riksbank (Central Bank of Sweden)

Abstract: It has been suggested that interest-rate smoothing may be partly explained by an omitted variable that relates to conditions in financial markets. We propose an alternative interpretation that suggests that it relates to measurement errors in the output gap.
