Romania’s consumer price inflation eased to the lowest level in eight months in September, figures from the Bucharest-based National Institute of Statistics (INS) showed on Friday.

The consumer price index (CPI) climbed 3.5% year-on-year in September, after a 3.9% rise in August. The latest inflation was the lowest since January, when it was 3.3%.

Prices for services grew 4.24% annually in September, while those of food products and non-food products rose by 4.1% and 2.78%, respectively.

On a monthly basis, consumer prices rose 0.09% in September.

The harmonized index of consumer prices, a means of measuring inflation in the euro area for better comparison, also climbed 3.5% year-on-year in September, after a 4.1% in July, the INS said.
