Nordea Markets Insights En

Central banks had struggled for a decade with extreme measures as shock therapy to push inflation even close to typically targeted 2% levels, with very limited success. But Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in early 2022 triggered supply shocks for energy and food, which has caused a sharp and sudden inflation spike. In this Nordea On Your Mind podcast, Johan Trocmé and Viktor Sonebäck remind us what inflation actually is, how it works, what drives it, and why it is bad for the economy. Should you be convinced that the inflation surge is temporary?
