Austria’s Producer Price Index (PPI) grew at an annual rate of 3.3% in July 2026, slightly above the 3.1% year-over-year increase recorded in June 2026. The data, updated on 28 August 2026, indicate a modest acceleration in producer-level inflation pressures within the Austrian economy.
The figures are based on a year-over-year comparison, meaning July’s 3.3% reading reflects the change in producer prices versus July of the previous year. Similarly, June’s 3.1% figure compares prices to June a year earlier. The uptick suggests that input and output costs for Austrian producers continued to rise at a slightly faster pace as the summer progressed, a development closely watched by policymakers and investors for its potential pass-through to consumer prices and corporate margins.
