Peru | Inflation continues to fall…
Summary
The CPI rose 0.21% in May. During the month the upward impact of higher exchange rate, the increase in the cigarette excise tax, and higher oil prices were observed. Thus, the annual rate of inflation stood at 3.5%, and we anticipate that it will continue to moderate due to normalization of food prices and lower depreciation of currency.
