Romania’s Producer Price Index (PPI) rose 6.00% year-over-year in December 2025, marking a noticeable acceleration from the 4.78% annual increase recorded in November 2025. The data, updated on 3 February 2026, indicate renewed upward pressure in producer-level prices after a softer reading in the previous month.
Both the current and previous readings are calculated on a year-over-year basis, comparing each month with the same month a year earlier. The move from 4.78% to 6.00% suggests that cost pressures facing Romanian producers intensified at the end of 2025, a development that may have implications for corporate margins and, potentially, future consumer price dynamics if higher input costs are passed along the value chain.
