Inflation in Iran
Inflation rose to 53.4% in February from 51.3% in January. Price pressures have been pushed up recently by the weak parallel-market rial, a large monetary expansion and the elimination of the subsidized exchange rate. Looking forward, our analysts see inflation averaging the second-highest in the region this year on currency weakness and elevated money supply growth.
