If inflation is anticipated, the effects of inflation may be less severe, since wage and pension contracts may have inflation clauses built in, and interest rates will be high enough to cover the cost of inflation to savers and lenders. “Inflation premium” is amount that interest rate is raised to cover effects of anticipated inflation. “Real interest rate” is defined as nominal rate minus inflation premium.
