Guinea‑Bissau’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) has risen dramatically over the 39‑year series, moving from an all‑time trough of 1.19 in 1987 to an all‑time peak of 149.89 in 2025, placing the country at rank 108 globally with a 2025 value of 149.89. This surge reflects persistent macro‑economic volatility, including frequent exchange‑rate depreciations and fiscal imbalances that have amplified domestic price pressures. The 2025 CPI is virtually identical to the level recorded by Belgium (149.85) and only marginally below the Netherlands (150.16), underscoring how the small West African economy now mirrors inflation dynamics of advanced European markets. While the index’s upward trajectory signals entrenched structural challenges, recent policy moves toward tighter monetary conditions and improved fiscal discipline could temper future inflation, provided external shocks such as commodity price swings remain limited.
