Private Haushalte haben oft andere Inflationserwartungen als die offiziell erfassten Inflationsraten. Ihre Wahrnehmung werde vor allem durch Einkaufserfahrungen oder Familie und Freunde geprägt, weniger durch klassische Medien, stellte Michael Weber, Professor of Finance an der University of Chicago Booth School of Business im Rahmen der „Bundesbank Invited Speakers Series“ vor. Was das für die Kommunikation und Geldpolitik von Zentralbanken bedeutet, diskutierte er im Anschluss mit Bundesbankpräsident Joachim Nagel. Moderiert wurde die Veranstaltung von Falko Fecht, Leiter des Forschungszentrums der Bundesbank.
