KUALA LUMPUR: Inflation is expected to trend higher between 2.0 per cent to 3.5 per cent this year compared to an average of 1.8 per cent in 2024, according to Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM).
In its Economic and Monetary Review 2024 released today, BNM noted that the inflation level will remain manageable amid easing global cost conditions and the absence of excessive demand pressures.
