Egypt's Consumer Price Index (CPI) saw a moderate increase in April, reaching 13.90%, up from March's rate of 13.60%, according to the latest data updated on May 10, 2025. This year-over-year comparison reflects the continuing upward pressure on consumer prices within the North African economy.

The rise in April's CPI indicates persistent inflationary trends, with the index comparing current rates to the same period a year prior. The previous month's data also reported a significant year-over-year increase, marking a trend that economists and policymakers will likely closely monitor.

This latest data highlights the challenges facing Egypt's economy as it seeks to manage inflation while balancing growth and stability. As the country continues to recover from global economic disruptions, these CPI figures will be crucial in guiding future monetary policy decisions and economic planning.
