What Is Deflation in an Economy? Deflation is when the prices of goods and services decrease across the entire economy, increasing the purchasing power of consumers.

Because higher interest rates mean higher borrowing costs, people will eventually start spending less. The demand for goods and services will then drop, which will cause inflation to fall.
Lowering interest rates
The lower the interest rate, the more willing people are to borrow money to make big purchases, such as houses or cars. When consumers pay less in interest, this gives them more money to spend, which can create a ripple effect of increased spending throughout the economy.
