Venezuela recorded a deceleration in inflation during September, reaching 8.4%, reflecting a trend toward stabilization according to the Central Bank. This figure represents an annual cumulative increase of 225.3%, maintaining the erosion of purchasing power despite the monthly improvement, which authorities attribute to political coordination and the normalization of external income. Previous volatility, marked by spikes in July following the earthquakes, highlights the economy's fragility in the face of external shocks. However, the continued reference to the dollar as a basis for prices persists, consolidating a de facto dollarization that continues to pressure the costs of goods and services, complicating sustainable recovery and long-term financial stability for the country. This report is relevant for open data because it illustrates the critical need for transparent and verifiable economic data in contexts of high inflation and institutional distrust. The availability of official figures allows for the analysis of trends, comparison with independent estimates, and the promotion of accountability, all of which are essential for building trust and facilitating informed decision-making in unstable economies.
