Ukraine’s consumer price growth slowed in May 2026, with the year-over-year Consumer Price Index (CPI) easing to 8.2%, down from 8.6% in April 2026. The latest figures, updated on 09 June 2026, indicate a modest but continued disinflationary trend in the Ukrainian economy.
Both the April and May readings are based on year-over-year comparisons, measuring price changes against the same month a year earlier. The May slowdown suggests that inflationary pressures, while still elevated, are gradually moderating compared with earlier periods, potentially offering some relief to households and policymakers watching price dynamics closely.
