CONTESTED PARTIAL

Is it true that inflation always reduces real GDP?
Partly. One peer-reviewed study on Ukraine asserts that any inflation reduces real GDP, while other sources indicate inflation can coexist with real output growth and only reduces GDP above a marginal threshold. The evidence is partial and mixed, addressing specific economies rather than the universal 'always' claim.
