It must be emphasized that countries which have embraced explicit targets for price stability have adopted inflation targets rather than price level targets. On the other hand, inflation targeting is a monetary policy regime that makes low inflation its primary objective (Svensson, 1999a; King, 1997). Under inflation targeting, the monetary authorities commit to maintaining inflation rate around its target with no other variables in their objective function (Svensson, 1999b). Also, under an inflation targeting regime, the interest rate changes in response to deviations of the output gap from zero. It has been observed that inflation targeting improves the credibility of central banks by becoming more transparent and accountable through better communication of policies.
