प्रश्न
Explain creeping inflation impact on the economy?
उत्तर
- Creeping inflation, described as a slow and gradual increase in prices (usually 1-3% per year), has a positive and negative impact on the economy. On the plus side, rising inflation can boost spending and investment since consumers and businesses expect prices to grow gradually, making it more appealing to purchase goods and services or invest sooner rather than later.
- However, creeping inflation might have certain negative consequences. If it persists for an extended period of time, it has the potential to reduce consumers' purchasing power, particularly for those on fixed incomes, who may find it increasingly difficult to maintain their living standards.
