Uganda's CPI Sees an Uptick: Inflation Edges Up to 4.0% in September
Uganda's Consumer Price Index (CPI) witnessed a slight uptick in September 2025, with the annual inflation rate climbing to 4.0%. According to the latest data updated on September 30, 2025, this marks an increase from the 3.8% recorded in August.
The CPI, a key indicator reflecting price changes in consumer goods and services, has shown a year-over-year rise. The current figures shed light on a subtle escalation in the cost-of-living pressures as compared to the same period last year. The previous month's CPI, comparing August 2025 to August 2024, indicated a 3.8% change, whereas September 2025 shows a higher inflationary rise when compared to September 2024.
This inflationary trend continues to be a vital indicator for policymakers and economic analysts monitoring Uganda's economic health. As living costs increase, there might be implications for monetary policy decisions aimed at managing inflation and sustaining economic growth. Consumers and businesses alike are keeping a close eye on these changes as they navigate the economic landscape.
