For that, we use a large number of econometric models to forecast short-run inflation. Specifically, we use univariate models as Random Walk, SARIMA, a Time Varying Parameter model and a suite of multivariate autoregressive models as Bayesian VAR and Dynamic Factor models. Results of forecasting suggest that models which incorporate more economic information outperform the benchmark random walk for the first two quarters ahead. Furthermore, we combine our forecasts by means and the finding results reveal that the forecast combination leads to a reduction in forecast error compared to individual models. 000294973 700__ $$aZardi, Souhaïb Chamseddine 000294973 8564_ $$9fc35086b-fcb3-4565-b620-cf95280d6ceb$$s1326901$$uhttps://repository.graduateinstitute.ch/record/294973/files/HEIDWP07-2017.pdf 000294973 8564_ $$9dfdabcac-4898-4801-ac3a-7cc14a6e2911$$xpdfa$$s1902767$$uhttps://repository.graduateinstitute.ch/record/294973/files/HEIDWP07-2017.pdf?subformat=pdfa 000294973 901__ $$uInternational Economics Department$$0319285 000294973 909CO $$ooai:repository.graduateinstitute.ch:294973$$pGLOBAL_SET$$pIHEID:Explore 000294973 937__ $$aWP-2017-067 000294973 980__ $$aWP
