Nick Tuffley: ASB Chief Economist on the inflation rate coming into target range at 2.2%
from Early Edition with Ryan Bridge · host Newstalk ZB
Inflation is expected to keep easing in the months to come. Overall inflation is back within the target range at 2.2% due to falling prices for imports like petrol and diesel. Domestically-driven non-tradeable inflation remains much higher at 4.9%, due to a sharp rise in rents, council rates and insurance premiums. ASB Chief Economist Nick Tuffley told Ryan Bridge that inflation is expected to remain close to 2% over the next few years, with a chance of it edging below towards the end of 2025/26. He says it would take something quite drastic to push it back up. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
