Inflation Rate in Cameroon
Inflation eased to 7.3% in December—the latest month of available data—from 8.2% in November, above the Bank of Central African States’ 3.0% target. Meanwhile, the Bank raised its policy rate to 5.00% in late March. This year, lower commodity prices, the CFA’s euro peg and higher interest rates should dampen inflation. Commodity price spikes are an upside risk.
