Analysis# Cabo Verde Inflation Rate (CPI)
Cabo Verde's inflation rate stands at 2% in 2026, reflecting a stable pricing environment after decades of volatility. Since 1980, the country has reduced inflation by 86.8%, a dramatic improvement from the 21.1% peak recorded in 1982. The all-time low of -2.4% in 2000 illustrates the full range of price movements experienced over this period. Current levels remain well below historical averages, positioning the nation among more stable economies in the region.
A significant inflationary spike occurred in 2022, when inflation reached 7.9%—the highest point in decades—likely driven by global commodity price shocks and supply chain disruptions. The economy has since stabilized, with inflation declining to 1% in 2024 before moderating to 2% by 2026. This downward trajectory suggests successful monetary policy management and improving economic conditions.
