Overview
Moldova's consumer price index stood at 313.52 in 2025, a rise of +36.48 from 2024. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 313.52 by 2025. Moldova ranked 28th globally.
Moldova’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) has risen from a baseline of 0.01 in 1991 to 313.52 in 2025, placing the country 28th globally and marking the highest level recorded over the 35‑year series. The steep ascent reflects cumulative price pressures that intensified after the early 1990s transition, with the index reaching its all‑time peak in the current year. Compared with peer economies of similar rank, Moldova’s CPI sits slightly below Lao PDR’s 319.53 and above Uruguay’s 310.38, suggesting that inflation dynamics are broadly comparable across these diverse contexts. The long‑term upward trajectory signals persistent cost‑of‑living increases, while any substantial fiscal consolidation, monetary tightening, or supply‑side reforms could moderate future movements. Continued monitoring of policy responses will be crucial to determine whether the CPI stabilises or resumes its upward path.
