Singapore’s headline inflation came in at 2.4% y-o-y in June, according to Consumer Price Index (CPI) data released by the Department of Statistics (Singstat) on July 23.

This is unchanged from May, which also saw 2.4% y-o-y growth. The headline inflation also came in lower than consensus estimates of 2.5% for June.

Core inflation – which gauges price increments to sectors other than accommodation and private transport – edged up 0.6% y-o-y, easing from 0.8% in May.
