المملكة المتحدة معدل التضخم

The annual inflation rate in the UK remained steady at 3.8% in September 2025, unchanged from the previous two months and below expectations of 4%. Transportation prices rose by 3.8% (vs 2.4% in August), driven primarily by higher costs for motor fuels and air fares, and to a lesser extent, vehicle maintenance and repair. Prices also accelerated in restaurants and hotels (3.9% vs 3.8%) and in clothing and footwear (0.5% vs 0.2%). Conversely, inflation slowed in recreation and culture (2.7% vs 3.2%), mostly live music events, and in food and non-alcoholic beverages (4.5% vs 5.1%), the first moderation since March, partly reflecting a greater increase in sales and discounting activity in September 2025 compared with the same month a year earlier. Price growth also eased slightly for housing and utilities (7.3% vs 7.4%). Services inflation was unchanged at 4.7%. On a monthly basis, the CPI was unchanged. Annual core inflation unexpectedly slowed to 3.5% from 3.6%.
