Why is inflation desired and important?

1.20K views

I’ve read that many banks want a certain level of inflation and I don’t really see why. Why is important to banks that a stable product costs more tomorrow than today?

Is it to make people spend their money more since storing it will eventually make is worth less?

Because you need to have always, constant, endless growth. I mean growth is a fundamental requirement for the current financial system, if you don’t grow it, it collapses.
Inflating things makes them grow, hence inflation is a good way to grow.
