Italy’s consumer price growth accelerated in October 2026, with the country’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) rising 0.9% month-over-month, up from a 0.7% increase recorded in September 2026. The data, updated on 30 October 2026, indicate a modest pickup in price pressures compared with the previous month.
The October reading reflects the change in prices between September and October, while the September figure captured the shift from August to September. The step-up from 0.7% to 0.9% suggests that inflationary momentum has strengthened slightly on a month-to-month basis, an important signal for policymakers and market participants tracking the trajectory of living costs in Italy.
