ULAN BATOR, Feb. 10 (Xinhua) -- Mongolia's inflation rate, as measured by the consumer price index, was recorded at 7.5 percent in January, according to the latest data released by the National Statistics Office (NSO) on Tuesday.

This figure reflects a 1.2-percentage-point decrease compared to the same period last year, the NSO said in a statement.

Mongolia's central bank plans to keep inflation within 5 percent (±2 percentage points) starting from 2027 to ensure macroeconomic and financial stability.

According to estimates from international organizations such as the World Bank, Mongolia's economy is expected to grow by 5.5 to 5.7 percent in 2026.
