THE NON-LINEAR RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN INFLATION AND ECONOMIC GROWTH

Economic growth refers to an increase in a country's real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) over time. According to the World Bank (2023), the global average economic growth rate was 2.6% in 2022. Inflation, on the other hand, is defined as a sustained increase in the general price level of goods and services in an economy over a period of time. The International Monetary Fund (2023) reports that the average inflation rate for advanced economies was 1.7% in 2022. The relationship between inflation and economic growth is complex and multifaceted. According to a study by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD, 2023), there is a positive relationship between low and stable inflation and strong economic growth, while high inflation can lead to lower economic growth.
