The Singapore Department of Statistics has reported a 0.7% year-on-year increase in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for September 2025. This marks a 0.4% rise from the previous month, indicating a modest upward trend in consumer prices.
The CPI is a critical measure of inflation, reflecting changes in the price level of a basket of consumer goods and services. The September figures suggest a steady, albeit slight, increase in inflationary pressures within the Singaporean economy. This data is crucial for policymakers and economists as they assess the economic landscape and make decisions regarding monetary policy.
These developments underscore the importance of staying informed about economic indicators, which can impact everything from household budgets to national economic policy. The CPI data will continue to be a focal point for understanding Singapore’s economic health in the coming months.
