The inflation rate for this month was recorded at 2.2% compared to the same month last year, marking a rise from July's rate of 2.0%. This follows a consistent trend where the rates were also 2.0% in June and 2.1% in May.
According to the Federal Office, the most significant price hikes were observed in services, which surged by 3.1% in August. In contrast, the prices of goods increased by 1.3%, with food prices specifically rising by 2.5%. This is a slight uptick from July, where food prices increased by 2.2%.
On the other hand, energy prices saw a decrease of 2.4% compared to the previous year. When comparing the month-on-month data, consumer prices in August rose by 0.1% from July, according to the preliminary statistics.
