Subdued November inflation expected

December 01, 2025

November inflation is expected to remain subdued but may post a slight uptick due to weather-related supply disruptions, according to the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP).

In its month-ahead forecast, the central bank said that consumer prices for the month are likely to settle between 1.1 percent and 1.9 percent.

The top end of the range, if realized, would mark the highest inflation print in nine months, or since February’s 2.1 percent.

“Upward price pressures for the month reflect in part the impact of inclement weather as prices of rice, fish and fruits increased,” the central bank said.
