摘要：The relationship between inflation and its volatility has been analyzed extensively in the macroeconomics literature. Most studies concluded that a strong and positive empirical relation exists between the variables. Over time, the topic was analyzed in more theoretical setups and the hypothesis that there exists a strong and positive relationship between inflation and its volatility came to be known as the Friedman-Ball hypothesis and was analyzed for many country groups and time periods. In contrast to these studies, especially after the 2008 financial crisis, other studies established that the relation could be non-monotonic. In the present study, the relation between inflation and its volatility has been analyzed for BRICS economies and the Euro area for the period 2002-2020 using two different inflation measures. We find that the Friedman-Ball hypothesis is confirmed when a long-term inflation measure is used and partly refuted when a short-term inflation measure is used. An implication is that the results are contrasting for emerging economies and for different inflation measures.
