Comment on Worldwide Inflation by Country in 2023 by Studman

Дата публикации: 20-05-2026 08:59:38

I disagree with the % you indicate on the map of inflation in reality the five particular countries that should be on the 100% or higher spectrum are vietnam, cuba, choson(north korea), laos, and zhongguo(china) those countries have one thing in common there communist they only use there own currency (dong, kip, yuan, cuban peso, korean currency??) instead of the euro these particular $$ dont function as powerful due to the fact that the government of these countres has mismanaged the use of there rule with corruption, contaminated food, homes cities and roads arent built and paved, no establishment of business sector from other countries, falsifying there data rate on the economic situation, idenity theft, homicide, lack of food medicine and culture, no freedom of religion except alowing satanic worship to exsit in thoses countries, and censor whats really happening and see the real dark ugly side of those countries the media and google doesnt touch on omiting it including communist owned media.

Worldwide Inflation Nov 2023 Click for Larger Image

Data Source

Even though Argentina is in the news due to its high inflation rate it isn’t the only country suffering from hyperinflation.  It’s not even the highest inflation… with Venezuela and Lebanon even higher. In this article, we will look at global inflation rates by country and inflation around the world as of November 2023.

The World Inflation Rate

The average inflation rate around the world is 11.1%. The global inflation rate surged from 4.35% in 2021, and 3.18% in 2020.

Countries with the Highest Inflation Rates

The countries with the highest inflation are not surprising each has suffered from high inflation before. The top ten have suffered from hyperinflation consistently even when the rest of the world had very low inflation rates. Last year, Sudan had the highest inflation rate in the world at 260%. This year it has fallen to number 5 with “only” 63.3% annual inflation. Venezuela on the other hand has moved from second place with 222% inflation up to first place with 283% inflation.  We’ve been writing about Hyperinflation in Venezuela since they tried a Crypto scam to solve it in 2018. In an effort to solve their hyperinflation Argentina’s new president is considering dollarization, i.e., switching from their own currency to the U.S. Dollar.

Zimbabwe (the last country on this list) was in the triple-digit hyperinflation club back in 2008 and so Zimbabwe adopted the U.S. Dollar in 2009 knocking it well below the 2.2 million percent it was at. Although this temporarily helped their hyperinflation problem, unfortunately, their economy continued to stagnate primarily due to corruption, and despotism. So, in June 2019, their President decided to revert back to their own currency. Which of course did nothing to improve their economy except to reintroduce massive inflation. So, in 2023 they have instituted a gradual return to a dollarization. This year (2023), 77% of transactions were conducted in U.S. Dollars. Interestingly, Zimbabwe’s annual inflation as of November 2023 has dropped to “only” 21.6%.

Top Hyperinflation Countries

The following 22 countries all have inflation rates above 20%.

1 Venezuela 283.0%
2 Lebanon 215.0%
3 Argentina 161.0%
4 Syria 79.1%
5 Sudan 63.3%
6 Turkey 62.0%
7 Sierra Leone 54.6%
8 Suriname 43.4%
9 Iran 39.2%
10 Republic of the Congo 37.6%
11 Egypt 34.6%
12 Cuba 34.1%
13 Ethiopia 29.2%
14 Pakistan 29.2%
15 Myanmar 28.6%
16 Nigeria 28.2%
17 Malawi 26.9%
18 Burundi 26.5%
19 Ghana 26.4%
20 Laos 25.2%
21 Haiti 22.8%
22 Zimbabwe 21.6%

But we have to remember that these are the “official inflation rates” the actual real-life inflation experienced by consumers could easily be much higher or even double the official rate. Number 2 is Lebanon which is also suffering a repeat performance of hyperinflation. Syria remains as the 4th highest inflation in the world for another year and we wrote about its hyperinflation back in 2013.

Back in February 2022, we wrote about the Massive Gap Between Official Turkish Inflation and Reality. We have to remember that as Milton Friedman once said, “inflation is always and everywhere a monetary phenomenon”

Countries with Hyperinflation in 2022

Although it is difficult to say at what point high inflation becomes “hyperinflation” we have listed the top 10 inflation countries as “countries with hyperinflation in 2022”. These countries all have inflation rates above 30%.

EU Inflation Rate aka. European Inflation Rate

The European Union (EU) inflation rate is 3.6%. If, as we’ve already said, inflation is a monetary phenomenon, how can various EU countries have different inflation rates? According to the European Central Bank (ECB) “The euro area economies have experienced a considerable degree of inflation rate convergence during the past decade.” So having the same Central Bank has tended to stabilize the individual European country’s inflation rates. But each country still has control over its own spending, borrowing, and taxation policies but they can’t set their own interest rates, which creates stresses within the EU financial system. It is also important to note that NOT all EU Countries use the EURO so they may not even have the same currency.

Countries with Deflation

Ten countries have negative inflation, i.e., falling prices aka. “deflation”. Although deflation is demonized by big debtors like the U.S. government it is not always bad. It can be a sign of increasing productivity although it can also signify a contracting economy.

Asian Inflation

Chinese inflation was one of the lowest inflation rates in the world at 2.1% as of April 2022. However, like in many other countries, the official China Inflation Rate may not represent real-life inflation i.e. what actual Chinese consumers pay. In 2023 they have fallen to -0.5% deflation so prices are actually falling.

The Philippine inflation rate is relatively moderate at 4.1% down from 4.9%, South Korea is 3.3% down from 4.8%, and Thailand has followed China into deflation at -0.4% down from 4.65%. Japan has a national inflation rate of 3.3% up from 2.5%, Vietnam is at 3.5% up from 2.64%, Malaysia has 1.8% down from 2.2%, and Hong Kong has 2.7% up from 1.7%.
