Egypt’s core Consumer Price Index (CPI) accelerated in June 2026, signaling renewed inflationary pressures in the economy. Year-over-year core inflation rose to 14.30% in June, up from 13.80% in May 2026, according to data updated on 9 July 2026.

The core CPI measure, which compares price changes in June 2026 to the same month a year earlier, excludes volatile items and is closely watched as an indicator of underlying inflation trends. The latest reading shows that the pace of core price increases has picked up for a second consecutive month on an annual basis, after May’s 13.80% year-over-year gain.

The increase suggests that underlying inflationary forces remain persistent, potentially maintaining pressure on monetary policy and financial conditions. Market participants will be monitoring upcoming data to assess whether June’s rise marks the beginning of a stronger inflationary phase or a temporary uptick within a broader stabilization trend.
