Inflation
by country

Annual change in consumer prices. The table keeps each country's reported year visible so stale and current observations are not treated as equivalent.

What it helps answer

Reading the signal

Indicates how quickly the average consumer price basket changed, affecting household purchasing power, wages, interest rates and operating costs.

Before comparing

Important limits

National baskets and data methods differ, while an average can hide sharp variation by category. A lower positive rate means prices rise more slowly, not that prices fell.

Measurement
