MACROECONOMIC ANALYSIS SERIES: Inflation Outlook 2019

Januari 15, 2019

Despite wide fluctuation of international oil price, slightly higher consumption growth, and rapidly depreciating currency, inflation in 2018 remains remarkably low, with headline inflation at 3.13% (y.o.y) in December 2018. Historically, faster consumption growth drives demand for goods and services and thus tend to push inflation higher. Similarly, without additional fuel subsidy budget, higher oil prices would normally push subsidized fuel  prices upward, affecting price of transportation of goods and services and thus increasing prices of most goods and services simultaneously.
