Inflation Rate Trends and Forecast for Chile from 1990 to 2029

Chile’s inflation rate began at 26% in 1990, reflecting a transitional period of economic stabilization following years of high inflation. By 1999, inflation had decreased to 3.3%, attributed to structural reforms and monetary tightening. A notable spike occurred in 2008, with inflation reaching 8.7% due to global commodity price shocks.

In 2022, inflation spiked again to 11.6%, driven by supply chain disruptions and domestic demand pressures. Forecasts suggest inflation will stabilize at 3.0% by 2026, reflecting Chile’s effective monetary policy and strong institutional framework.
