INFLATION EXPECTATIONS: A SYSTEMATIC LITERATURE REVIEW AND BIBLIOMETRIC ANALYSIS
ABSTRACT The main purpose of this work is to conduct a systematic literature review regarding inflation expectations, their determinants, and their implications for policy making in Latin America. The analysis shows the importance of inflation expectations in the countries that use an inflation targeting scheme, while also supporting the idea that inflation expectations can affect other sectors of the economy. As for the determinants of expectations, the findings show the importance of past iterations of expectations, supporting the idea that the inflation expectations are heavily determined by themselves. The amount of research being conducted in this field is not comprehensive. This is even more evident in the Latin American region since it is a recent research field with a meager number of publications, deeming our study useful for future research. The classification process makes it easier to know the most common variables and econometric methods used to find the determinants of inflation expectations and their impact on other economic variables.
