Inflation expectations rise slightly

Inflation expectations have risen slightly, according to a report from Kantar Prospera.

Over a one-year horizon, inflation measured by the KPIF (Consumer Price Index with a Fixed Interest Rate) is expected to be 2.0 percent, according to the latest survey. In June, expectations were at 1.9 percent.

Over a two-year horizon, inflation is also expected to be 2.0 percent, up from the previous 1.9 percent.

This aligns with the Riksbank’s inflation target of 2.0 percent.

Over a five-year horizon, inflation expectations have increased to 2.1 percent, compared to the previous 2.0 percent.

Kantar Prospera conducts these surveys on behalf of the Riksbank.
