FX.co ★ Namibia’s Monthly Inflation Quickens in October as CPI Rises to 0.70%

Namibia’s consumer price inflation accelerated on a month-over-month basis in October 2026, with the Consumer Price Index (CPI) rising by 0.70%, up from a 0.40% increase recorded in September 2026. The latest data, updated on 5 November 2026, point to a pickup in short-term price pressure compared with the previous month.

On a month-over-month comparison, the “actual” figure for October reflects the change in prices versus September, while the “previous” figure for September measures the change relative to August. The move from 0.40% to 0.70% suggests that price gains are building momentum, which may draw closer scrutiny from policymakers, businesses, and investors monitoring Namibia’s near-term inflation trend.
