Overview
Ecuador's consumer price index stood at 135.71 in 2025, a rise of +2.66 from 2024. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 135.71 by 2025. Ecuador ranked 148th globally.
Ecuador’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) reached 135.71 in 2025, the highest point recorded since the series began in 1960 when the index stood at 0.01, and placed the country 148th in the world ranking. The 66‑year coverage shows a dramatic upward trajectory, reflecting persistent inflationary pressures that have accelerated particularly in the last decade. By comparison, peer economies with similar rankings such as El Salvador (135.91) and Portugal (134.94) have experienced comparable CPI levels, suggesting that Ecuador’s price dynamics are aligned with broader trends in emerging and middle‑income markets facing fiscal deficits and volatile commodity prices. The all‑time peak coincides with a period of expansive fiscal stimulus and depreciating exchange rates, while the early trough illustrates a vastly different macroeconomic environment. If monetary tightening and structural reforms succeed in curbing inflation, the CPI could stabilize below the current peak, moderating the upward trend observed over recent years.
