About Viet Nam inflation

What is inflation?

Inflation is the sustained and generalized increase in the price level of goods and services in an economy over a period of time. When inflation rises, each monetary unit buys fewer products. The inflation rate is generally measured by the Consumer Price Index (CPI), which reflects changes in the cost of a representative basket of goods and services.
