CPI 6.1% (implicit target) — weak credibility (39/100)

Fiji holds #138 on the headline ranking, against 13 others we score in East Asia & Pacific. 12 of them sit in a stronger band than Fiji and 1 in a weaker one. Their split: 12 in 50–65, 1 in < 35. Hong Kong SAR, China tops them at #7; Myanmar closes them at #149. Closest either side of Fiji: Lao PDR at #114 and Myanmar at #149. 1 of the 13 is monitored rather than ranked — the dashes below. This far down, the neighbours worth watching are the ones climbing out. A falling score only costs places when a neighbour is close enough behind to pass. Same seven dimensions, same sources, same day.

Questions about the Fiji score

What does a score of 39.2 mean for Fiji?

39.2/100, band 35–50: the target has stopped constraining much and survives as a stated intention. That is 10.8 points below the 50 mid-point of the scale. Seven weighted dimensions produce the figure and no analyst adjusts it afterwards. Nothing in it is a forecast — it grades what Fiji's central bank has already done, said and delivered.

How often is Fiji's score updated?

Nightly, off that day's public releases; this page carries the 2026-09-10 run. It has come down from 39.4 across seven days, a loss of 0.3. A 90-day trailing average damps single prints, so a weekly move past a couple of points is a real one. Tomorrow's run replaces the 2026-09-10 figure outright rather than revising it in place.

What is the 35–50 credibility band?

Five bands cut the scale — ≥ 80, 65–80, 50–65, 35–50, < 35 — and 35–50 is step 4. Fiji clears its 35 floor by 4.2 and stops 10.8 short of 50. The step above is 50–65 and the step below is < 35. Bands grade monetary behaviour, not default risk, so none of this is a credit rating.
