A. M. El Salvador registers low accumulated inflation of 0.56% in five months of the year
El Salvador registered an accumulated inflation of only 0.56% between january and may 2025, one of the lowest in Latin America and the Caribbean. The country ranked among the five nations with the best price controls, according to official data from the Fundación Ciudadana por un Consumo Responsible.
Argentina, Bolivia, and Cuba topped the list with the highest rates, reaching inflation rates of 13.3%, 9.81% and 7.45% respectively. In contrast, Jamaica and Costa Rica showed negative figures of -1.2% and -0.88%.
Countries such as Panama, Guatemala and El Salvador showed stability in their economies, with figures below 1%. This performance highlights the prudent fiscal management and moderate price environment in the Central American region.
Although El Salvador still faces economic challenges, these data reflect a balance in inflation control, something that benefits salvadoran families and investment attraction.
The nation’s low inflation is a crucial factor for consumer confidence and investment attraction. A stable price environment strengthens citizens’ purchasing power and provides a predictable framework for business development, contributing to national economic growth and resilience.
El Salvador is thus consolidating its position as one of the countries with the lowest inflationary impact so far this year.
