Overview
Guyana's consumer price index stood at 144.84 in 2025, a rise of +6.46 from 2024. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 144.84 by 2025. Guyana ranked 124th globally.
Guyana’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) has risen from 37.99 in 1994 to 144.84 in 2025, marking a 280 percent increase over 32 years and placing the country 124th globally. The 2025 figure of 144.84 represents both the latest reading and the all‑time peak, surpassing the CPI of peer Canada (144.71) and approaching Sweden’s 145.36, while remaining slightly below Burkina Faso’s 146.26 and Côte d’Ivoire’s 143.79. The steep upward trajectory reflects persistent inflationary pressures, driven by expanding fiscal deficits, currency depreciation, and higher import costs for food and fuel. Although the index remains lower than that of many high‑income economies, the rapid climb since the mid‑1990s suggests that without decisive monetary tightening or structural reforms to stabilise the exchange rate, inflation could continue to accelerate, potentially eroding real incomes and fiscal stability.
