árindexszel

Árindexszel is a Hungarian term that translates to "with price index" or "using a price index". It is commonly used in economic and financial contexts to describe situations where prices are adjusted or measured based on a price index. A price index is a statistical measure that tracks the average change in prices of a basket of goods and services over time.

For example, rental agreements in Hungary might include a clause stating that the rent will be adjusted annually according to the consumer price index (fogyasztói árindex). This means that if the consumer price index rises by 5%, the rent would also increase by 5% to maintain its real value. Similarly, wages or pensions might be indexed to inflation to ensure that their purchasing power does not diminish.

The concept of árindexszel is important for understanding how economic policies and contracts aim to preserve the value of money against inflationary pressures. Different types of price indexes can be used, such as the consumer price index (CPI), producer price index (PPI), or specific industry price indexes, depending on the context. The choice of index is crucial as it determines the extent of the price adjustment. This mechanism helps to provide a more stable and predictable economic environment by mitigating the unpredictable effects of inflation.
