                 Price Index (CPI). Japan CPI has been adjusted down by two percentage points from April 2014 to March 2015 to remove the estimated impact of the consumption tax
                 hike over this period. Forecasts are from Bloomberg contributor composite. (Right) Bloomberg, J.P. Morgan Asset Management. 5y5y inflation swap represents the
                 market’s expectation of five-year average inflation, starting in five years’ time. UK 5y5y inflation uses RPI rather than CPI as the reference point, which partly explains
                 why the UK line is significantly above other regions. Strong demand for index-linked Gilts from defined benefit UK pension funds is another factor driving UK inflation
                 expectations higher. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of current and future results. Guide to the Markets - UK. Data as of 30 September 2021.
