In brief: Inflation picks up in Honduras
*Honduras’ central bank (BCH) has announced that monthly inflation in June was 0.44%, up from 0.31% in May. This brought the annual inflation rate in June to 4.67%, up from 4.54% in May, but still within the BCH’s target range of 4.00% +/- 1%. According to the BCH the increase was mainly explained by the rise in prices in the transport category which posted a 1.90% monthly rise, particularly in fuel, as well as certain products in the food and non-alcoholic drinks category (+0.32%). The BCH estimates that policy actions by the government (fuel and energy subsidies) reduced inflation by 0.35 percentage points regarding the June annual figure.
