Definition
Inflation Expectations are at any given point in time the explicit or implicit Expected realisations of Inflation for any set of agents participating in an economy with a given monetary system.
Measurement

- From surveys
Issues and Challenges
- Extracting inflation expectations from asset prices may be skewed by other market related factors and risk premia that may be hard to isolate
- Inflation Expectations are not obviously linked with Inflation realizations.[1]
