Heterogeneity of inflation in the euro area: more complicated than it seems

Abstract

We document different measures of inflation heterogeneity in the euro area. We ask what mostly drives this heterogeneity and whether there is cause for concern. Heterogeneity in headline inflation has increased substantially, and way more than heterogeneity in core inflation. We argue that core inflation dispersion is largely driven by small countries, where inflation reversion is the most likely. We then discuss about monetary policy as a limiting or aggravating factor of inflation heterogeneity.
