In a newly released report, Turkey's Consumer Price Index (CPI) shows a slight decrease as the year-over-year inflation rate stood at 32.95% for August 2025, according to data updated on September 3rd. This marks a small decline from July 2025, when the inflation rate clocked in at 33.52%.
The inflation figure for August signifies a marginal easing of the upward pressure on prices that have characterized Turkey’s economy over recent years. This decrease is viewed by analysts as a cautiously positive sign, although the rate remains significantly high.
The CPI's year-over-year comparison reveals the continuing challenge Turkey faces in stabilizing prices as it grapples with persistent economic dynamics. As the nation looks toward upcoming economic strategies, these figures will play a crucial role in shaping both governmental and market responses. Policymakers and investors alike will be closely monitoring whether this downward trend in inflation can be sustained in the months ahead.
