The Central Bank of Bosnia and Herzegovina published updated estimates of core inflation and services sector inflation using official consumer price index statistics and weights. It puts annual core inflation at 4.32% for the first ten months of 2025, while annual growth in average consumer prices in the services sector is estimated at 4.83%. Official data for October indicate a slight strengthening of inflationary pressures in the price components that feed into core inflation compared with September, but the resulting ten-month core and services inflation rates are not materially different from the corresponding nine-month levels. The published core inflation estimate is also 6 basis points below the Central Bank’s estimate from its September nowcast round.
