There is examining the relationship between quantitative easing and inflation, as the sharp rise in inflation is considered a major risk associated with quantitative release an. Relationship between quantitative easing and inflation is observed by means of simple regress analysis (using the OLS) and the moving correlation (rolling correlation) between each wheel QE with regard to the development of mortgage, financial and debt crisis.

The Czech National Bank and Inflation Targeting as an Instrument of Maintaining Price Stability
Pokorný, Tomáš ; Kohajda, Michael (advisor) ; Sejkora, Tomáš (referee)
Title: The Czech National Bank and Inflation Targeting as an Instrument of Maintaining Price Stability Author: Ing. Tomáš Pokorný Supervisor: doc. JUDr. Michael Kohajda Ph.D. When performing monetary policy, the central bank can follow inflation targeting or other monetary policy rules. Following a rule, the central bank can efficiently stabilize economic development in the long run, because the changes in the mon- etary policy given by the policy rule are included in the rational expectations of agents. It might seem that the consistency of monetary policy is secured by following the policy rule only. The potential discretion, however, remains in the different preferences of the bank board members, which may completely change monetary policy decisions within the given monetary policy rule. Current leg- islation does not prevent this discretion by any means as the decision of bank board members' appointment is awarded to the Czech president exclusively, who can completely disrupt the monetary policy consistency with the previous bank board. The changes in the bank board preferences are analyzed using the GMM method on two subsamples in the period of 1996 Q3 - 2021 Q2. The empirical analysis shows that the Czech National Bank followed its constitutional duty and reacted with its policy rates to the...

PPI and CPI: What is the relationship?
Červený, David ; Polák, Petr (advisor) ; Havránek, Tomáš (referee)
This bachelor thesis examines the relationship between the PPI and the CPI in the Czech Republic and the euro area. The primary method used in this thesis is the Granger causality test. Granger causality between the price indices is tested for in a bivariate model and also conditional on other variables describing the development of real GDP, a given monetary aggregate and wages. The most apparent conclusion that can be drawn from the empirical results indicates that the PPI Granger-causes the CPI in the Czech Republic and that there is no Granger causality going from the CPI to the PPI in the euro area. These results are consistent with conventional economic theory, which suggests a pass-through effect in the production chain going from producer prices to consumer prices.

High Frequency Price Index of Construction Materials
Štefl, Josef ; Polák, Petr (advisor) ; Čech, František (referee)
The paper explores the possibilities of using big data in economics in an effort to shift research from a study of statistical samples towards basic populations. To this end, the Construction Materials Price Index was created to capture price level movements in this market segment on weekly basis. This specific field was chosen because, despite its signi- ficance, it has not yet been examined in much detail by the Czech Statistical Office. The underlying index data represent the complete offer of the three most significant Czech eshops with building materials, which is periodically obtained through web scraping. The research took place between October 2021 and June 2022. The nine-month evolu- tion of the index reflects the economic recovery after the covid-19 pandemic, but also the sharp market response after the Russian invasion of Ukraine. This bachelor thesis contains a detailed description of the methods used as well as a thorough analysis of the results. JEL classification Keywords Title C43, C55, C80, E31, E37 inflation, high frequency price index, big data, web scraping, construction materials price level High Frequency Price Index of Construction Materials High Frequency Price Index of Construction Materials Josef Štefl

Central Bank Monitoring - September 2017
Česká národní banka
Most of the central banks under review, including the ECB, are keeping their interest rates at low levels and continuing their unconventional monetary policy programmes. The two exceptions which have already raised interest rates are to be found in North America. The first is the US Fed, which as expected raised its key rate for the second time this year and announced a more exact procedure for reducing its balance sheet. The second is the Bank of Canada, which has also increased its rates twice. With the exception of Switzerland, inflation is above 1% in all the monitored economies, but is still slightly below the inflation target in most cases. Spotlight focuses this time on the problems of the South African economy and the situation of its central bank. In our Selected speech, ECB Executive Board Member Yves Mersch analyses the challenges and opportunities to central banks arising from the current rapid technological development.
