According to Marczinkó Zoltán the 5.7 percent increase in retail sales in June is due to the increase of employment, the reduction of the personal income tax rate and due to the growth of average gross wages. Low inflation can also be seen in real wages; more money remains, so people can spend more – he added. (MTI)
