Mozambique’s consumer price inflation slowed slightly in September 2026, with the year-over-year Consumer Price Index (CPI) easing to 6.31%, down from 6.45% in August 2026. The data, updated on 9 October 2026, indicate a modest cooling in price pressures compared with the same month a year earlier.
Both the current and previous readings are calculated on a year-over-year basis, comparing each month’s price level to that of the corresponding month in the prior year. The September figure suggests that while inflation remains elevated, its gradual deceleration could signal a stabilizing price environment for households and businesses in Mozambique. Investors and policymakers are likely to watch forthcoming releases closely for confirmation of a sustained disinflation trend.
