Economic outlook and global context In 2022 and 2023, inflation in many rich countries rose to heights unseen in decades.

For example, Italian consumers have indicated that they purchase fewer unnecessary products, cut down on waste, and buy more discounted items in order to save costs. Changing consumer behaviors Outside of food consumption, consumers have changed their purchasing behaviors with other types of goods and services. Surveying has indicated that nearly 60 percent of consumers have adjusted their shopping habits due to inflation.
