Inflation in Turkey

Turkey has the most extreme inflation history in this dataset. Chronic high inflation ran through the 1980s and 1990s, frequently between 60% and 100% a year, and the cumulative effect was so large that by 2004 everyday transactions involved millions of lira. The government removed six zeros from the currency in 2005.

After a period of relative stability in the 2000s, inflation returned dramatically from 2021, driven by an unorthodox policy of cutting interest rates while inflation rose. The annual rate peaked at roughly 85% in October 2022, the highest in 24 years, and Turkey remains an outlier among G20 economies.

The Central Bank of the Republic of Türkiye has a 5% inflation target, though actual inflation has run far above it in recent years.
