Angola’s consumer price inflation picked up slightly in September 2026, with the month‑on‑month Consumer Price Index (CPI) rising to 0.68%, up from 0.59% in August 2026. The latest figures, updated on 8 October 2026, indicate a modest acceleration in price growth after a softer reading in the previous month.

On a month‑over‑month basis, the September “Actual” figure compares the change in prices during September to those in August, while the August “Previous” reading reflected the change from July to August. The uptick suggests that price pressures strengthened marginally as the third quarter drew to a close, potentially signaling a shift away from the more moderate inflation dynamics seen in August. Investors and policymakers will be watching upcoming data closely to see whether this marks the start of a renewed upward trend in consumer prices or a temporary bump in the inflation path.
