Summary
MAS Core Inflation eased to 1.8% on a year-on-year (y-o-y) basis in December, from 1.9% in November.
This was due to a moderation in services inflation.
On a month-on-month (m-o-m) basis, core CPI increased by 0.5%.
CPI-All Items inflation came in at 1.6% y-o-y in December, unchanged from November.
This was because lower core and accommodation inflation was offset by a milder decline in private transport costs.
On a m-o-m basis, CPI-All Items rose by 0.3%.
For 2024 as a whole, MAS Core Inflation averaged 2.7%, easing from 4.2% in 2023.
Meanwhile, CPI-All Items inflation averaged 2.4% in 2024, down from 4.8% in 2023.
