Inflation Targets Vs. Actual Inflation
□ Inflation during the COVID-19 pandemic exceeded the monetary policy
targets set in FY20, FY21 and FY22
☐ Due to problematic calculations of the CPI, actual inflation did not exceed
inflation targets of the monetary policy by a large margin
☐ Prior to the pandemic years, inflation targets were met in FY15, FY16,
FY17 and FY19, although in reality the cost of living kept rising
