anti-inflationary
Curbing rising prices
Anti-inflationary describes policies or measures designed to reduce or prevent inflation—the general rise in prices that erodes purchasing power.
Central banks raise interest rates as an anti-inflationary measure; governments may cut spending or increase taxes.
The Federal Reserve's anti-inflationary stance has cooled the housing market.
