Mexican annual inflation
was higher than expected in the first half of August , official data showed on Thursday, keeping pressure on the central bank to maintain higher borrowing costs.
The annual inflation rate reached 6.59 percent in the first two weeks of August, data from the Mexican statistics agency showed.
In the first half of July , the inflation rate was 6.28 percent . The rate averaged 6.44 percent during the month.
The rate in the first two weeks of August was the highest in the first half of any month since June 2001 , the data showed.
To tackle rising inflation and weakness in the peso currency, since the end of 2015 Mexico's central bank ( BANXICO ) has hiked its benchmark interest rate to a more than eight-year high of 7.00 percent . It held rates steady earlier this month, however.
