Has inflation accelerated again?: What consulting firms predict for September

As the month of September closes, media coverage highlights two distinct major developments across different regions. In Argentina, attention has turned to economic indicators following the 1.7% inflation rate recorded in August, as analysts and private consultancies evaluate whether the government managed to sustain a downward trend in consumer prices or if inflation accelerated anew.

Simultaneously, reports from the Dominican Republic detail an increase in violent fatalities during September, registering thirteen more deaths compared to the previous year. Official authorities note that despite this monthly rise, the country's cumulative homicide rate remains among the lowest levels of criminality, creating a noticeable gap between official statistics and public perception on the streets.
