Turkey raises inflation forecasts
The Turkish government is predicting higher inflation for the rest of the year.
The central bank released its Inflation Report for 2022 today. In the report, the financial institution predicted year-end annual inflation will reach 60.4%, up from the previous prediction of 42.8%.
Why it matters: Inflation is running rampant in Turkey, rising above 78% in June. The central bank cited “supply shocks” resulting from the Russian invasion of Ukraine for the high inflation, specifically with regard to fuel, food and agricultural prices.
