When euro-area governments announce price-related (expansionary) fiscal measures, households perceive higher inflation but an improved labour market outlook. www.bde.es/wbe/es/publi... #bdeResearch 

This paper offers a comprehensive characterization of fiscal drag in Europe in recent years and finds very heterogeneous impacts across countries, with implications for revenue collection, redistribution, and macroeconomic stability. ➡️ www.bde.es/wbe/es/publi... #bderesearch

Very proud to see the results of this ambitious collaboration I have coordinated over the last year (31 authors!). Our paper provides new insights on fiscal drag in Europe through microsimulation. www.ecb.europa.eu/pub/pdf/scpw...

This paper by Nicolás Forteza and Sergio Puente develops a machine learning method to retrieve a continuous probability distribution of individual labor market attachment, contrasting the usual binary distinction. It improves links to employment flows and GDP. www.bde.es/wbe/es/publi...
