Economic History

Netherlands

Slovak Rep

Core inflation for May showed the highest growth in 12 months (5.0 percent on an annual basis), and CPI inflation hovers in the upper end of the 6.7-8.2 percent target corridor for 2001. But both analysts and the central bank remain calm. (references)

Thailand

Domestic inflation has fallen significantly since 1998 when the consumer price index jumped 8 percent, largely due to the depreciation of the local currency, and deflation was a concern for much of 1999. Consumer prices increased just 1.6 percent on an annual basis in 2000. The Bank of Thailand has implemented an "inflation targeting" framework for its monetary policy, aiming to keep core inflation in the 0 to 3.5 percent range. (references)
