The average annual change in the consumer price index from the IMF World Economic Outlook database. The IMF brings national series to a common methodology and publishes a five-year forecast, which makes it possible to compare not only current but also expected inflation. For countries with hyperinflation the IMF flags the data separately as estimates.
