Inflation in Georgia exceeded: 5.9% with a target of 3% Annual inflation in Georgia reached 5.9% in October 2026, almost twice the National Bank's target of 3%. Prices rose by 0.9% during the month, and the pressure on the economy continues to grow. The biggest increases were for transportation (+21.9%), services (+10.1%) and health services (+8.4%) - that is, those areas on which daily life depends. Reducing the prices of education (−12%) and communication (−2.5%) does not change the overall picture: the basic basket becomes more expensive, and for the citizens this means further devaluation of money. If inflation does not slow down, the National Bank will have to raise interest rates again - and this will be a blow to loans and economic growth.
