Hrvatska je ponovno na europskom vrhu po visini inflacije. Iako je Državni zavod za statistiku objavio procjenu inflacije od 3,4 posto u prosincu, iz Vlade kažu kako je inflacija tijekom netom završene 2024. godine ostala u okvirima njihovih procjena (2,9 posto). No, iz Eurostata tvrde da je inflacija u Hrvatskoj tijekom prosinca iznosila 4,5 posto, znatno iznad europskog prosjeka od 2,4 posto
Maruška Vizek argues that rising prices in Croatia are a result of a fundamental policy shift: the abandonment of the single most effective tool for controlling inflation.
Vizek and the ministers of economy and finance acknowledge the recent rise in inflationary pressures, attributing it to increased demand driven by strong economic growth.
However, Vizek suggests that the root cause lies in policy choices that have abandoned the "one way" method for controlling inflation, implying a lack of focus on tight monetary policies and fiscal discipline.
Essentially, the article suggests that Croatia's current economic situation, with its rising inflation, is not merely a natural consequence of growth but a symptom of a deliberate policy departure.
