Abstract
This paper investigates the equilibrium relationship between the nominal interest rate and inflation rate in Japan using a threshold cointegration test, which allows for asymmetric adjustment. While the Engle-Granger method assuming symmetric adjustment cannot obtain the result of cointegration, a threshold cointegration approach provides clear evidence of the cointegration relationship characterized by asymmetric adjustment toward equilibrium. This shows that the long-run equilibrium relationship between the nominal interest rate and inflation rate is stable with asymmetric adjustment.
