South Korea's central bank said on Tuesday that consumer inflation was expected to maintain the current stable trend for the time being.
The Bank of Korea said inflation was stabilising more quickly than in other major economies, in a statement released after data showed inflation reached the central bank's target in August.
This in reference to the data earlier:
- South Korea's headline CPI in August has risen at its slowest y/y pace since March 2021
- South Korea's Vice Finance Minister says inflation expected to stabilise in lower 2% range
