Inflation in Angola returns to decelerate in August maintaining single-digit trajectory

SAPO Notícias15 September 2026 at 17:45

Inflation in Angola decelerated again in August, maintaining the single-digit trajectory that had already been observed in previous months. The National Consumer Price Index registered a variation of 8.78% in August 2026 when compared to the same period last year.

This value represents a deceleration of 0.55 percentage points compared to the previous month, demonstrating a continuation of the trend towards decreasing the inflationary pace in the country.

Compared to the same period in 2025, inflation registered an even more significant drop, with a difference of 10.09 percentage points, which shows a substantial reduction in inflationary pressure over the past year.

Why this matters

The deceleration of inflation to 8.78% means that consumer prices are rising more slowly, which can improve the purchasing power of Angolan families. The drop of 0.55 percentage points compared to July maintains the slowdown trend that had already begun in previous months.
