This dataset provides values for INFLATION RATE reported in several countries. The data includes current values, previous releases, historical highs and record lows, release frequency, reported unit and currency.

Of the major developed and emerging economies, China had the lowest inflation rate at *** percent in June 2025. On the other end of the spectrum, the inflation rate in Russia stood at nearly ** percent. The country's inflation rate increased sharply after the country's President, Vladimir Putin, decided to invade Ukraine, declined somewhat in 2023, before increasing slowly again since. The rate of inflation reflects changes in the cost of a specified basket containing a representative selection of goods and services. It is derived from the consumer price index (CPI).

Inflation is characterized by a steady rise in the aggregate level of prices in an economy - put into simpler words, it is the rise in all prices in the economy, rather than just in specific prices for goods or services (such as when there is a shortage in a particular good). The consumer price index tracks price trends of private consumption expenditure, and shows an increase in the index's current level of inflation. In August 2025, the inflation rate in Türkiye (previously known as Turkey) was 33 percent compared to the same month of the previous year, making it one of the countries in the world with the highest inflation rate.

Inflation rates rose all around the world in 2022, so also in the G7 countries, where inflation rates varied from 2.5 percent in Japan to over 8 percent in Italy. Inflation rates increased sharply all around the world through 2022, spurred by Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February that year. Especially gas and electricity were hit by price increases following the outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine war. Inflation rates were falling in all G7 economies in 2024.

The rate of inflation in the table is the percent change in the Consumer Price Index from the previous month. We show the monthly inflation in the last month with reported data as well as three months ago and one year ago. The numbers are updated on a daily basis as new data become available from the national authorities. The inflation rate can fluctuate significantly from one month to another. You may want to look at the annual inflation rate for a longer-term perspective.

Context

I wanted to build a project on global inflation but decided to work on something else. But I wanted to open-source the data I found.

Content

Each row contains the yearly inflation rate as determined by either author research or the World Bank for the country in question. There are columns tagged for the latest five-year mean of the data, as well as country code and language-specific translations of inflation to be able to localize Google Trends in each country based on a two-letter country code Google accepts (Alpha-2 Country Code).

Thank you to Google Trends for capturing this information, and the World Bank for compiling yearly inflation rates.

Is inflation increasing around the world? Can Google Trends predict inflationary pressures in certain countries? Can we infer a Phillips Curve, and determine which countries have which monetary policy objectives?
