Inflation at 7.65
percent
The overall inflation
for the first 10 months
this year was 7.65
percent, according to
the National Statistics
and Census Bureau.
That outcome is close to
the 8 percent inflation
goal set for the year
2007 by the Central
Bank.
The inflation goal is
not likely to be
attained, admitted the
Bank’s chairman
Francisco Gutierrez.
He added that the new
goal is around 9
percent. In 2005, the
overall inflation was
14.5 percent and it was
9.43 percent in 2006. |
