The doubling clock

At Mozambique's current 4.37 % — prices double in~16 yrsAt the ~2 % target — prices double in~35 yrs
Exact compounding (ln 2 ÷ ln(1 + rate)), not the rule-of-72 shortcut — and an if-it-holds projection, not a forecast: the clock is reset by every new inflation reading. The target line is the context — most central banks aim near 2 %, where prices double about once a working life.

How to read this figure

Annual change in the consumer price index — how much more the same basket costs than a year ago. Derived from official index levels (World Bank collection); one number for the whole country, so your personal basket may run hotter or colder. Ranked and coloured by distance from the ~2 % target most central banks aim for: deflation is a warning sign, not a win, so the greenest countries sit NEAR the target — not at the lowest number.
