As of November 24, 2025, Singapore's inflation rate, as measured by the Consumer Price Index (CPI), has recorded a notable increase. In October 2025, the CPI rose to 1.2%, up from the previous month's rate of 0.7% observed in September. This change highlights a significant shift in the inflationary trend observed within the country over the past month.
This rate is calculated on a year-over-year basis, which means the current CPI values compare the changes between October 2025 and October of the previous year. The newly updated figure of 1.2% surpasses a stagnating September figure, indicating an upward pressure on prices across various sectors.
The increase in the CPI suggests that prices for goods and services in Singapore have grown at a faster pace than in previous months. This may have implications for monetary policy as well as consumer behavior, potentially impacting how economists and policymakers approach inflation management and economic forecasts in the months to come. As the year progresses, analyzing these inflationary patterns will be crucial for understanding the evolving economic landscape in Singapore.
