Topic: under control

CPI and core inflation were both within set limits in February and the first two months of the new year.

Vietnam’s inflation rate will come in at 2.25 per cent for the opening months of 2022, which is controllable, State Bank of Vietnam (SBV) Governor Nguyen Thi Hong told the third session of the 15th National Assembly on June 8. The rise mainly stems from higher prices for goods globally. Therefore, until the end of the year, monetary policy must closely follow the disbursement of recovery packages to avoid an impact on inflation.
