As of 2021, the annual consumer price index increased to 319.94 percent from 303.13 percent in the preceding year. Over the presented time period, a comprehensive upward trend can be identified, through which 2021's value is the peak.
The consumer price index is frequently used to measure inflation by measuring the prices of a representative basket of goods and services acquired by households. The devaluation of the Egyptian Pound, in November 2016, by the Central Bank of Egypt resulted in a significant increase in inflation in 2017 due to an exchange rate pass-through.
According to the source definition, consumer price index reflects changes in the cost to the average consumer acquiring a basket of goods and services that may be fixed or changed at specified intervals.
