Belarus retains strict control over the growth of prices

22 июля 2015

The experts of the Ministry of Trade claim that the situation in the consumer market is stable. Monthly inflation rate did not exceed one percent. Since the beginning of the year, prices for the regulated product groups in Belarus did not rise. In addition, the Ministry has made recommendations on the allowable size of trade allowances for the goods in respect of which legal regulation is not applicable.

In order to curb rising prices the Ministry of Trade will continue to monitor the observance of the law on pricing. If necessary, it can adjust the level of maximum trade margins for socially important goods. This applies to all forms of retail sites.
