Turkey’s end-year consumer price index (CPI) inflation forecast inched up in September 2026, signaling persistent price pressures in the economy. The projection rose to 29.61% in September from 29.43% in August, according to data updated on 11 September 2026.
The marginal increase in the forecast highlights that, while inflation expectations remain elevated, the pace of deterioration in year-end outlook is currently limited. The upward revision from August to September suggests markets and analysts are still bracing for a high-inflation environment as the year draws to a close, keeping attention focused on monetary policy decisions and broader macroeconomic management in Turkey.
