According to the final data of the German Federal Statistical Office Destatis, consumer prices in the country, harmonized with EU standards, increased by a record 10.9% in annual terms in September. On a monthly basis, prices increased by 2.2%.


Both indicators coincided with preliminary estimates and average forecasts of analysts. In August, price inflation in Germany accelerated by 8.8% year-on-year and by 0.4% compared to July.


Consumer prices, calculated only by German standards, rose by 10% YoY in September after rising by 7.9% a month earlier. Previously, a similar picture could be observed in the 50-s of the last century. Compared to August, inflation was 1.9%. In July, the price increase was 0.3%.
