Macro Economy Dashboards

The Average Annual Inflation measures the percentage change in prices for a typical basket of consumer goods and services purchased by households nationwide, categorized mainly into Food & Non-Alcoholic Beverages and Non-Food items, using the National Consumer Price Index (NCPI). This indicator is vital for assessing the cost of living, purchasing power, and overall economic stability. Rising inflation can erode household income, affect savings, and influence interest rate policies, while low and stable inflation supports predictable economic planning. Policymakers, businesses, and investors monitor inflation trends to guide monetary policy, wage adjustments, and investment decisions.
