Global inflation is an economic phenomenon that affects currency values and the purchasing power of people around the world. The impact of inflation is not only felt by developed countries, but also by developing countries, including Indonesia. Some of the significant effects of global inflation on people’s economies include reduced purchasing power, increased prices of goods and services, and economic uncertainty. First, the main influence of global inflation is seen in reducing people’s purchasing power. When the prices of goods and services increase, the money consumers have cannot buy the same quantities as before. This can result in changes in consumer behavior, such as switching from premium products to more affordable products. For example, rising inflation causes consumers to postpone purchases of goods such as electronics or vehicles and focus on basic needs such as food and shelter. Second, global inflation often increases the prices of imported goods. Countries that depend on imports for daily needs will feel a direct impact on the prices of goods. When shipping and production costs increase globally, the price of goods in the domestic market will also automatically increase. This can cause difficulties for people on fixed incomes, such as workers or civil servants, whose income is not always in line with the rate of inflation. Third, one impact that is rarely discussed is the increasing economic uncertainty caused by inflation. When prices are unstable, businesses become reluctant to invest. This can slow economic growth and create conditions of uncertainty for employment. People may feel worried about their future, and this can influence their financial decisions, including saving or investing. Fourth, inflation can push interest rates to rise. The central bank will respond to high inflation by increasing interest rates to curb spending and control inflation. This means people have to pay more for loans and installments, such as mortgages or vehicle loans. As a result, the financial burden will increase, which will have a negative impact on people’s daily lives. Fifth, global inflation creates significant social impacts. People with low and middle incomes tend to be hardest hit by inflation. These groups often lack the ability to adapt quickly to economic changes, making them more vulnerable to poverty and social instability. Financial difficulties can add to pressure, leading to social conflict that may arise due to dissatisfaction with economic conditions. Finally, to overcome the impact of inflation, people are advised to increase financial literacy. With better knowledge about money management, people can make better decisions in managing expenses and investments. Apart from that, diversifying sources of income is also the key to creating economic resilience for individuals and families amidst fluctuating global inflation.
