MIDF: Inflation likely to remain low


PETALING JAYA: Malaysia’s inflation rate is expected to remain low in the first half of this year thanks to the continuous decline in producer prices, according to MIDF Research.

A low inflation rate would be a boon for savers as they would have more spending power and opportunities to earn an inflation-beating return on their cash.
