Chile’s consumer price index (CPI) rose 1.3% month-over-month in April 2026, accelerating from a 1.0% increase recorded in March 2026. The latest data, updated on 08 May 2026, indicate a pickup in price pressures compared with the previous month.
On a month-over-month basis, April’s “Actual” reading compares the change in prices in April versus March, while the “Previous” figure reflected the March change relative to February. The move from 1.0% to 1.3% suggests that inflationary momentum strengthened at the start of the second quarter, signaling a slightly hotter short-term price environment for Chilean consumers and policymakers.
