Spain's inflation rate at 2023 highs

Jornal de Negócios28 August 2026 at 10:23

Spain's inflation rate reached its highest levels since 2023, according to preliminary data recently released. The increase represents a reversal of the downward trend observed in previous months.

The main driver of this acceleration was the rise in energy product prices. This increase in the energy sector had a significant impact on the overall consumer price index in the country.

The data is still considered preliminary, meaning it may be subject to revision in the coming weeks when final statistics are released. This situation arises in an economic context marked by volatility in European energy markets.
