Italian retail inflation - March 2026
Italian Consumer Price Index Sees Increase in March 2026
Initial figures indicate that Italy's national consumer price index (NIC) rose by 0.5% in March 2026 compared to the previous month, and by 1.7% year-over-year, marking an uptick from February's 1.5% annual rate.
This rise in inflation was largely driven by significant changes in energy prices. Regulated energy products saw their annual rate climb from -11.6% to -1.3%, while non-regulated energy products improved from -6.2% to -2.4%. Additionally, unprocessed food prices increased from 3.7% to 4.4%.
Conversely, the pace of price growth slowed for certain service sectors. Prices for services related to recreation, repairs, and personal care dropped from a 4.9% increase to 3.0%, and services connected to transport eased from 2.8% to 2.4%.
