"We examine the usefulness of large-scale inflation forecasting models in Indonesia within an inflation-targeting framework. Using a dynamic model averaging approach to address three issues the policymaker faces when forecasting inflation, namely, parameter, predictor, and model uncertainties, we show that large-scale models have significant payoffs. Our in-sample forecasts suggest that 60% of 15 exogenous predictors significantly forecast inflation, given a posterior inclusion probability cut-off of approximately 50%. We show that nearly 87% of the predictors can forecast inflation if we lower the cut-off to approximately 40%. Our out-of-sample forecasts suggest that large-scale inflation forecasting models have substantial forecasting power relative to simple models of inflation persistence at longer horizons."

"Inflation Targeting Framework (ITF) dalam dua dekade terakhir semakin popular sebagai sebuah pendekatan baru dalam kebijakan moneter yang menggunakan inflasi sebagai sasaran utama kebijakan menggantikan besaran lain seperti pertumbuhan jumlah uang beredar. Namun ITF menemui banyak kritik menyangkut orientasi kebijakan yang mengutamakan stabilisasi yang menurut pengkritik akan mengorbankan pertumbuhan dan pengangguran. Atas kritik tersebut pendukung ITF menunjukkan bahwa ITF adalah kerangka kebijakan yang flexible yang dalam jangka pendek dapat merespon permasalahan output seperti di masa krisis. ITF merupakan pendekatan kebijakan yang bersifat diskresi daripada sebuah rule yang kaku. Sementara beberapa penelitian justru menunjukkan bahwa respon terhadap inflasi pada negara yang menerapkan ITF justru menurun setelah penerapan ITF. Sedangkan untuk Indonesia, yang menerapkan ITF sejak Juli 2005, bagaimana perubahan respon kebijakan moneter dengan penerapan ITF menjadi objek utama dalam penelitian ini. Penelitian menggunakan model Taylor Rule sebagai fungsi respon kebijakan moneter. Perubahan respon diukur dari perubahan parameter dalam fungsi respon kebijakan moneter yang akan diestimasi dengan model Time Varying Parameter. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penerapan ITF di Indonesia membuat respon kebijakan moneter lebih responsif terhadap Inflasi. ITF bersifat diskresi dengan parameter respon yang berfluktuasi dari waktu ke waktu dalam periode yang diteliti.

Inflation Targeting Framework (ITF) in the last two decades had been popular as the new framework in setting monetary policy which used inflation as nominal anchor, replacing other nominal anchor such as money growth. But its popularity was not without critics. Opponents of ITF criticized ITF to its concern on stabilization only that would sacrifice other objectives of policies: output and employment. Proponents of ITF answered the critics by arguing that ITF was a flexible framework rather than a rigid rule. It could anticipate problem of output in the short run such as during a crisis. While some researches on this field found that in some ITF countries monetary policy response to inflation tended to be lower after implementing ITF. For Indonesia which had implemented ITF since July 2005, how the changes in monetary policy responses due to ITF implementation was an object of this research. Using Taylor Rule as monetary policy responses function, changes of the response measured by changes in parameter of the model which estimated by a time varying parameter method. Evidence showed that ITF in Indonesia had changed the response of monetary policy to be more responsive to inflation than before. ITF implemented as discretion rather than a rule with monetary policy response changed over time during observed periods."

"Penelitian ini membahas tentang kemampuan Inflation Targeting Framework dalam menurunkan derajat Exchange Rate Pass-Through di Indonesia dari tahun 1998 hingga tahun 2008. Penulis ingin mengetahui apakah penerapan Inflation Targeting Framework yang dilakukan oleh Bank Indonesia dapat menurunkan derajat pass-through baik dalam jangka pendek maupun dalam jangka panjang. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah Ordinary Least Squares. Hasil penelitiannya menunjukkan bahwa penerapan Inflation Targeting Framework terbukti dapat menurunkan pass-through dalam jangka pendek, tetapi tidak terbukti dapat menurunkan pass-through dalam jangka panjang.

This study discusses about the ability of the Inflation Targeting Framework in lowering degree of Exchange Rate Pass-Through in Brazil from 1998 until 2008. The author would like to know whether the application of the Inflation Targeting Framework conducted by Bank Indonesia could reduce the degree of pass-through in both the short term and the long term. Research method used was Ordinary Least squares. The results indicate that the application of the Inflation Targeting Framework can lower pass-through in the short term, but cannot lower the pass-through in the long term."

"AbstractIn the last two decades many countries have been starting to employ Inflation Targeting Framework (ITF) as their main monetary policy framework. This is done to achieve an objective of anchoring public expectation on inflation which in the end will steer the price level movement towards ITF?s ultimate target of relatively low and stable inflation rate. By conducting Difference-in-Difference method on panel data consisting of five countries implementing ITF since 2001 and twenty-one selected non-ITF countries for period 1990-2010, it is statistically proved that ITF adoption has a significant effect on inflation. In case of Indonesia, through Structural Break approach, the implementation of ITF since 2005 is also proved able to lower and stabilize inflation rate.Abstrak Dalam dua dekade terakhir ini banyak negara yang telah mulai menggunakan Inflation Targeting Framework (ITF) sebagai kerangka utama kebijakan moneter mereka. Hal ini dilakukan guna mencapai tujuan pengendalian ekspektasi publik yang pada akhirnya akan mengendalikan pergerakan tingkat harga relatif rendah and stabil. Dengan menggunakan metode Difference-in-Difference pada data panel, yang terdiri dari lima negara yang telah mengimplementasikan ITF sejak tahun 2001 dan dua puluh satu negara bukan pengguna ITF, untuk periode 1990-2010, disimpulkan bahwa ITF memiliki dampak signifikan pada tingkat inflasi. Untuk kasus Indonesia yang telah mengimplementasikan ITF sejak tahun 2005, melalui metode Structural Break disimpulkan hasil yang sama, yaitu tingkatan harga yang rendah dan stabil."

"Tesis ini bertujuan untuk mengukur efek / pengaruh penerapan inflation targeting pada sistem nilai tukar mengambang terhadap pass through nilai tukar pada inflasi menurut IHK umum, IHK tradable dan IHK nontradable, dan untuk membandingkan pass through nilai tukar pada inflasi menurut IHK tradable dan IHK nontradable di Indonesia. Untuk menganalisa efek/pengaruh penerapan inflation targeting pada sistem nilai tukar mengambang terhadap pass through nilai tukar pada inflasi menurut IHK, digunakan metode error correction model ECM. Hasil penelitian yang dilakukan menunjukkan bahwa dalam jangka pendek maupun jangka panjang, penerapan inflation targeting berhasil menurunkan pass through nilai tukar pada inflasi menurut IHK, baik pada IHK umum, IHK tradables, maupun IHK non-tradables. Dalam jangka pendek, setelah penerapan inflation targeting, besarnya pass through nilai tukar terhadap inflasi menurut IHK non-tradable lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan pass through nilai tukar terhadap inflasi menurut IHK tradable. Hal tersebut mengindikasikan menurunnya efektivitas nilai tukar nominal sebagai peredam guncangan. Selain itu, dari penelitian juga dapat disimpulkan bahwa meskipun penerapan inflation targeting berhasil menurunkan pengaruh inersia inflasi, namun pengaruh inersia inflasi pada ekspektasi masyarakat masih dominan. Dengan demikian, penerapan kebijakan inflation targeting belum sepenuhnya berhasil mengarahkan ekspektasi inflasi masyarakat berdasarkan target inflasi yang telah ditetapkan.

The aims of this thesis are to estimate the effect of the inflation targeting application in floating exchange rate system to the exchange rate pass through in inflation according to general CPI, tradable CPI, and non tradable CPI, and to compare the exchange rate pass through in inflation according to tradable CPI, and non tradable CPI in Indonesia. Error correction model ECM is used to analyze the effect of inflation targeting application in floating exchange rate system to the exchange rate pass through in inflation according to CPI.

The result of this research shows that in long run and short run, the inflation targeting application succed to reduce exchange rate pass through to inflation according to general CPI, tradable CPI, and non tradable CPI. In short run, after the inflation targeting application, the exchange rate pass through to inflation according to non tradable CPI is higher than the exchange rate pass through to inflation accoding to tradable CPI. This indicates the reduce of the effectiveness of nominal exchange rates as shock absorbers.

Besides that, from this research we can conclude that eventhough the inflation targeting application has succed to reduce the influence of inertia inflation, but the influence of inertia inflation to society rsquo s expectation is still dominant. It means that the inflation targeting application are not entirely succed to lead the society rsquo s inflation expectation according to the inflation target."
