Inflation in January came in at 9.3%, down from December’s 12.4% but remaining well above the Central Bank’s 3.0–6.0% target range. December’s notable decline was mainly driven by easing transport price pressures. Inflation is expected to ease in 2023 as a whole but to average above the Central Bank’s target.
