The Central Bank of Aruba published its April 2026 monthly tables covering monetary conditions, government revenue, tourism and consumer prices. The release showed broad money rising to AWG 7,284.5 million from AWG 7,225.3 million in March, as a rise in quasi-money more than offset a decline in narrow money. An inflow of foreign funds of AWG 77.2 million lifted net foreign assets to AWG 4,141.8 million, while net domestic money creation was negative at AWG 18.0 million. Private-sector credit edged up to AWG 4,733.7 million from AWG 4,720.1 million, but lower net claims on the public sector reduced total domestic credit slightly to AWG 4,838.6 million. April government revenue totaled AWG 146.0 million, of which AWG 139.9 million was tax revenue. The consumer price index reached 110.8, up 0.1 percent from March and 0.8 percent year on year, while stay-over tourism increased 11.6 percent year on year to 141,135 visitors and 904,978 visitor nights.
