A short history of inflation in Jordan
Subsidy Reform and the Food Spike (2008)
Jordanian inflation peaked at 18.7% in the year to September 2008, from two things at once. The government reduced long-standing fuel subsidies in February 2008 as the world oil price climbed towards its record, and the global food spike of that year hit a country that imports most of its grain. Jordan also has almost no water and no oil, so a great deal of what it consumes arrives priced in someone else's currency.
The dinar has been pegged to the United States dollar since 1995, which has given Jordan a stable currency through a turbulent regional history and left the budget as the main instrument of adjustment. Inflation has generally been low, and the exceptions tend to follow decisions about subsidies rather than movements in demand.
