FX.co ★ Italy’s Inflation Reaccelerates in September as CPI Climbs to 4.2% YoY

Italy’s consumer price inflation picked up pace in September 2026, with the year-over-year Consumer Price Index (CPI) rising to 4.2%, up from 3.3% in August 2026.

The data, updated on 30 September 2026, show that price pressures have strengthened after a more moderate reading in the previous month. Both the current and prior figures are calculated on a year-over-year basis, comparing each month with the same month a year earlier.

The acceleration from August to September suggests renewed upward momentum in Italian consumer prices, a development likely to draw close attention from policymakers, businesses, and consumers amid ongoing concerns about the persistence of inflation across the euro area.
