Abstract
► We examine the implications of ex ante skill heterogeneity for long run inflation. ► The model suggests a range of parameters for which the Friedman Rule is suboptimal. ► Greater skill-heterogeneity may imply a higher preferred inflation rate. ► Empirically we find that the inflation-heterogeneity correlation is positive.
