    Uruguay's INE to update measuring of CPI

    In Aboal's opinion, the update will allow “a more reliable reflection of the consumption pattern of Uruguayans”

    Uruguay's National Institute of Statistics (INE) will change the way it measures inflation, starting in December 2022, it was announced in Montevideo this week. The new method means new products and services will be gauged while others are to be sidelined.
