What is the Russian inflation based on CPI?
When we talk about the rate of inflation in Russia, this often refers to the rate of inflation based on the consumer price index, or CPI for short. The Russian CPI shows the change in prices of a standard package of goods and services which Russian households purchase for consumption.
In order to measure Russian inflation, an assessment is made of how much the Russian CPI has risen in percentage terms over a give period compared to the CPI in Russia in a preceding period. If prices have fallen this is called deflation (negative inflation).
