HEADLINE INFLATION accelerated to a six-month high in September, mainly due to costlier fuel and vegetables, but remained below the central bank’s 2-4% target, the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) said on Tuesday.
Preliminary data from the PSA showed the consumer price index quickened to 1.7% in September from 1.5% in August, but eased from 1.9% in September 2024.
