FX.co ★ Serbia’s Monthly Inflation Cools Sharply in May, CPI Growth Slows to 0.3%

Serbia’s consumer price inflation eased markedly in May 2026, with the month‑over‑month Consumer Price Index (CPI) rising by just 0.30%, down from 0.80% in April 2026. The latest data, updated on 12 June 2026, point to a notable cooling in short‑term price pressures across the economy.

On a month‑over‑month basis, the current reading compares the change in prices in May to those in April, while the previous figure captured the change in April relative to March. The deceleration from 0.80% to 0.30% suggests that the pace of price increases has slowed significantly as the second quarter progresses, potentially easing some pressure on households and policymakers monitoring Serbia’s inflation dynamics.
