Egypt’s annual urban consumer price inflation (CPI) quickened to 12.5% in October

Data from statistics agency CAPMAS suggests that the uptick in inflation comes amid a series of economic reforms and tightening from the Central Bank of Egypt, including recent fuel price increases and wage adjustments.

While the rate remains well below the 38% peak seen in September 2023.
