Chart: Disinflation a new worry of GEMs

Weak demand and persistent economic slack have contributed to recent disinflation among advanced and several emerging market economies (Chart 1). But subdued import prices have also played a key role in bringing inflation down. This partly reflects the decline in oil and other commodity prices, but the study shows that the effect of weaker import prices on domestic inflation is also associated with industrial slack in key large economies. - IMF
