Kenya's Consumer Price Index (CPI) demonstrated modest growth in January 2025, marking a slight increase from the previous month's statistic. According to data updated on 31 January 2025, Kenya's CPI now rests at 3.30%. This increase comes after December's CPI held steady at 3.00%.
This year-over-year comparison indicates that Kenya is experiencing a gradual rise in consumer prices, suggesting an inflationary trend when compared to the same month last year. The notable 0.30% increase from December to January signifies that while inflation is present, it remains moderate.
Economists are closely monitoring this upward trend to assess its potential impact on the Kenyan economy. Such data serves as a crucial economic indicator, helping policymakers and stakeholders make informed decisions regarding monetary policies and economic strategies. As the country progresses into the new fiscal year, further observation will be essential to determine the trajectory of consumer prices and overall economic stability.
