Using a randomized controlled trial, we study whether showing German respondents a graph plotting the European Central Bank’s inflation target alongside inflation in the euro area from 1999 to 2017 affects respondents’ trust in the ECB.

Within this group, the information about the actual development of the inflation rate, and not information about the inflation target itself, appears to be the main driving force. |
