High prices to continue in Papua New Guinea
Sustained inflationary pressures and depreciation of the kina are expected to keep prices elevated through the year.
The Bank of Papua New Guinea has indicated that elevated prices will persist and may trend higher toward the end of the year due to ongoing inflationary pressures. These pressures are linked to the continued depreciation of the Papua New Guinean kina against the US dollar, which increases the cost of imports and contributes to broader consumer price increases.
