Abstract

Looking at the change in the UK inflation rate against the UK unemployment rate over the 1971-2012 period, Costas Milas examines the implications of the Bank of England’s forward guidance and why the 7% threshold was chosen. The empirical results offer support to the recent decision by Mark Carney and his MPC colleagues.
