After the deep recession of 2020, the recovery of the global economy in 2021 is progressing within a high inflation environment. And despite the unprecedented increase of money supply and disruptions in productive capacity during 2020 in the advanced economies (which, following the basic principles of economics, are inflationary in their nature), the acceleration of inflation was totally unpredicted. Moreover, even during its acceleration, the central banks of advanced economies were considering it to be transitionary, simply waiting for it to neutralize by itself. As a result, the inflationary pressures were transmitted to the Armenian economy, bringing almost a 10 percent increase in consumer prices and a 17 percent increase in food prices.
