- Abstract
- Historically, stronger dynamics in services prices than in non-energy industrial goods (NEIG) prices have led to a persistent positive gap between services and NEIG inflation rates. However, the relative price of goods versus services rose rapidly in 2021-2022 before subsequently falling back. This box reviews this episode and examines whether the pre-pandemic trend in this relative price development provides a good benchmark for future developments, also taking into account the potential impact of structural factors related to deglobalisation, digitalisation, demographic trends and climate change.
