Datos estadísticos publicados por INEGE sobre la evolución de la inflación del mes de febrero de 2025

Equatorial Guinea has recorded an increase in its consumer price index during February 2025, driven primarily by rising costs in food, transport, and healthcare services. This inflationary trend extends with varying intensity to the country’s main cities, reflecting widespread economic pressures that directly affect the population’s purchasing power and household planning in the face of higher costs for essential goods. Underlying inflation, which excludes energy products and fresh food, remains significant due to price increases in non-durable, manufactured, and imported goods. This indicates that inflationary forces are not merely seasonal or temporary, but are rooted in the cost structure of basic goods and the country’s dependence on imports, suggesting persistent challenges for price stability in the medium term. This report is relevant to the open data sector because it highlights the importance of transparency in the publication of official statistics by Equatorial Guinea’s National Institute of Statistics. The availability of detailed, disaggregated by category and geolocated data enables researchers and citizens to analyze regional and sectoral disparities, facilitating a better understanding of the local economy and promoting accountability through access to public information.
