Konda Inflation Expectation Survey

SUMMARY

The section presents the January 2025 results of the KONDA Inflation Expectations Survey, examining public perceptions of past and future price changes:

• By how much do you think prices have increased on average over the past year?
• What percentage do you expect prices to rise in the next 12 months?

The public's inflation expectation for the past year and the coming year are hovering at roughly the same rate. While inflation expectations are almost identical among 'Moderns' and 'Traditional Conservatives,' this expectation is lower among 'Religious Conservatives.'

The political group with the highest inflation expectation is DEM Party voters, while the group with the lowest expectation is AK Party voters.

The level of trust in Erdoğan divides society regarding inflation expectations. There is a significant difference in expectations between those who find the minimum wage increase appropriate for economic conditions and those who do not. The ability to make ends meet is another metric that differentiates inflation expectations.
