Inflation Explained

What is inflation and why does it matter?

Inflation is the rate at which the general level of prices for goods and services rises over time, eroding purchasing power.

When inflation is too high, everyday items become less affordable. When it is too low or turns negative (deflation), economic growth can stall. Central banks target a moderate inflation level — typically around 2% annually — to keep economies healthy.

Understanding inflation is essential for informed decisions about savings, wages, investments, and public policy.
