These are the same bands that shade the map on the Global Markets dashboard, so a country's colour there and its band here always agree.

What this measures

Consumer-price inflation over twelve months, for 198 economies. Monthly OECD and BLS observations are preferred where they exist; the World Bank's annual CPI is the floor for economies neither publishes monthly, and those rows show a year rather than a month. Ranked most price-stable first, because low is the good end here - unlike every other panel on this site, whose headline end is the largest number. Deflation is not the best case either: falling prices are their own hazard and get their own band.

Source: Official national statistics offices, via OECD and the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, with World Bank annual CPI as the broad fallback. Coverage differs from metric to metric because these providers cover different sets of economies, and a gap is left as a gap rather than filled from a proxy - an absent economy is one we hold no reading for, never a zero.
