World1 source1 country🔦 Under-reported4m ago
Bolivia registered an inflation rate of 0.85% in September, a month that saw the implementation of a new price for diesel following the elimination of its subsidy during the final 12 days. With this monthly figure, the country's cumulative inflation for the first nine months of the year reached 3.88%.
Simultaneously, the broader regional freight transport sector faced rising operational pressures, as cargo transport costs increased by 2.55% in September. This pushed the sector's cumulative rise to 30.3% over the first nine months of the year, driven by higher costs and the poor condition of roadways.
