Yes, Jackie - the word is common over here (on the financial pages, at least!)
It is, to some extent, a compound of inflate and re-inflate, but inflation has a bad (ish) connotation - that the money supply is getting out of hand (not in the Rhubarb patch, it ain't !!) whereas reflation has the connotation of things returning to normality, stability or whatever.
