The forecast for 2022 is above the ceiling of the inflation target that should be pursued by the Central Bank. The target – which is defined by the National Monetary Council – stands at 3.5 percent for this year, with a tolerance interval of 1.5 percentage points up or down. In other words, the lower limit is 2 percent and the upper limit is 5 percent.

Similarly, the market’s projection for inflation in 2023 is also above the expected ceiling. For 2023 and 2024, the fixed targets are 3.25 percent and 3 percent, respectively, also with tolerance intervals of 1.5 percentage points. That is, for 2023 the limits are 1.75 percent and 4.75 percent.
