Inflation in Chile
In Chile, inflation from 2013 to 2022 was largely managed within the central bank's target range of 2 to 4%. However, social unrest in 2019 and the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 disrupted this stability, leading to increased inflationary pressures. By 2022, inflation had risen significantly, driven by global supply chain disruptions, increased fiscal spending, and recovery demands. The central bank responded with monetary tightening to control rising prices.
Consumer price inflation in Chile averaged 4.1% in the ten years to 2022, below the Latin America regional average of 8.4%. The 2022 average figure was 11.6%. For more inflation information, visit our dedicated page.
