Turkiye’s annual inflation dropped to 38.1% in March, below forecasts, offering slight relief amid economic pressures. Monthly inflation rose 2.46%, while producer prices surged 23.5% annually. Experts remain cautious as currency fluctuations pose future risks.
Turkiye’s annual consumer price inflation fell to 38.1% in March, down from 39.05% in February, according to official data released on Thursday. The figure came in lower than the 38.9% forecasted in a Reuters poll, offering a slight reprieve amid ongoing economic pressures.
On a monthly basis, inflation stood at 2.46%, also below projections, following February’s 2.27% increase. Analysts had expected inflation to edge up to 3% in March.
Meanwhile, the domestic producer price index (PPI) rose by 1.88% month-on-month in March, leading to an annual increase of 23.5%. The decline in consumer inflation may ease some concerns, but economic experts caution that external factors and currency fluctuations could impact future price movements.
Turkiye has been grappling with high inflation rates, driven by global economic uncertainties, currency depreciation, and policy measures aimed at stabilising the economy. The latest figures suggest a potential slowdown in inflationary pressures, though economists remain cautious about long-term stability.
The Turkish government continues to implement measures to curb inflation while balancing economic growth, as markets closely monitor upcoming policy decisions.
