*Honduras’ central bank (BCH) has released new figures showing that monthly inflation in July was 0.15%, down from 0.19% in June, and the lowest of the past six months. The July 2026 monthly figure brought the annual inflation rate to 5.58%, down from 5.83% in June, but still beyond the BCH’s target range of 4.00% +/- 1%. According to the BCH the fall was a result of a more stable geopolitical international context, and a drop in prices of diesel, regular and super gasoline, and certain processed products such as powdered milk and packaged orange juice. According to the BCH, categories posting monthly price rises included food and non-alcoholic drinks (+0.22%) and housing, water, electricity, gas, and other fuels (+0.17%), while transport was among the categories to post monthly deflation. Honduras closed 2025 with 4.98% inflation.
