Sweden’s annual inflation rate rose to 1.1% in August 2025 from 0.8% in the previous month, in line with market expectations, a preliminary estimate showed. This marked the highest reading since February but remained well below the Riksbank’s 2% target. On a monthly basis, consumer prices decreased 0.4%, reversing a 0.2% rise in July. Meanwhile, the CPI with a fixed interest rate (CPIF), the Riksbank’s target measure, advanced 3.3% year-on-year in August, the fastest increase since January 2024, following a 3.0% growth in the prior month and slightly ahead of market forecasts of 3.2%.
