The Central Bank of Venezuela reported that the national consumer price index rose 6.2% in October 2026, the smallest monthly increase of the year. Inflation remained in single digits for a third consecutive month. The bank attributed the result to coordination with the national government and progress toward restoring fiscal balance, supported by fiscal discipline, normalization of external income flows and increased domestic revenue collection. The government and central bank also signed the Annual Economic Policy Agreement for 2027, reaffirming their commitment to price stabilization and economic growth.
