In a welcome sign for Turkey's economy, the Consumer Price Index (CPI) dipped slightly to 29.86% in June 2025. This marks a decrease from the previous indicator of 30.35% recorded in May 2025, according to data updated on 16 June 2025. Analysts are viewing the drop as an indication that inflationary pressures may be starting to abate, although the figure remains notably high.
The end-year CPI forecast has captured significant attention, with both domestic and international stakeholders keenly observing these monthly shifts. As Turkey contends with various economic challenges, including currency volatility and domestic fiscal policies, the easing of CPI rates could be pivotal in stabilizing the economy.
However, despite this slight decrease, economic experts remain cautious. They note that sustaining this downward trend will require comprehensive policy measures and vigilant monitoring to ensure that inflation does not revert to higher levels, thus providing the Turkish economy with a more solid footing as it approaches the latter half of the year.
