The GDP deflator (NY.GDP.DEFL.KD.ZG) is the annual percentage change in the price of all goods and services produced in the economy — a broad inflation measure tied to GDP, not a consumer basket. Latest: 2.79% in 2025.
It can diverge from a consumer price index when export or investment prices move differently from household prices. From 1961 to 2025 (65 years): mean 8.73%, median 7.80%; low 0.18% (1962), high 23.05% (1980).
