Methodology and data notes

Monthly inflation is the month-over-month percentage change in the not-seasonally-adjusted Brazil IPCA consumer price index. Annual inflation also uses this NSA index and is calculated from the final available observation in each calendar year to the final observation in the previous year. For an incomplete current year, the latest observation is compared with the previous calendar year's final observation and marked YTD.
