FX.co ★ Bahrain’s Monthly Inflation More Than Doubles in June, CPI Rises to 0.9%

Bahrain’s consumer price index (CPI) accelerated sharply in June 2026, with month‑on‑month inflation climbing to 0.90%, more than double the 0.40% increase recorded in May 2026. The latest data, updated on 27 July 2026, highlight a notable pickup in price pressures over the early summer period.

The figures are based on a month‑over‑month comparison, meaning June’s 0.90% reflects the change in prices compared with May, while May’s 0.40% represented the change versus April. The steeper June reading suggests a faster pace of price increases entering the second half of the year, a development that will be closely watched by households, businesses, and policymakers monitoring inflation dynamics in Bahrain.
