We consider an extension of the fractionally integrated ARIMA(0, d, 0) model for quarterly UK inflation, where we allow the fractional integration parameter d to vary with the season s. This periodic ARFIMA(0, d, 0) model does not only provide an informative in-sample description, it may also be useful for out-of-sample forecasting. The main result is that the integration parameter in the first two quarters is significantly larger than that in the last two quarters.
