Georgia was among the countries with moderate inflation in 2025, ranking 68th out of 191 in terms of consumer price growth - the figure was 3.9%. The data is provided in a Visual Capitalist review based on the IMF's October World Economic Outlook. Despite the increase in US trade tariffs to record levels in a century, global inflation slowed to 4.2%, and many economies showed resilience to external shocks.
The IMF forecasts that global inflation will fall to 3.7% in 2026, mainly due to weak price growth in China and moderate inflation in a number of European countries. Among the leaders in price growth in 2025 was Venezuela with a record 269.9%, followed by South Sudan (97.5%), Zimbabwe (89%), Sudan (87.2%) and Iran (42.4%). At the opposite end of the ranking, Panama recorded deflation of -0.1%, China - 0%, and Fiji, Qatar, Switzerland and Liechtenstein - 0.1%.
Neighboring countries show more dramatic fluctuations. In Turkey, inflation was 34.9%, which allowed it to take eighth place in the world, in Russia - 9% (27th place), in Azerbaijan - 4.2% (42nd place), and in Armenia - only 3.3% (98th place). Compared to its neighbors, the situation in Georgia looks calm, despite exceeding the target of 3%.
