Inflation in June, however, was 15.5%, not 15.6%

Prices of consumer goods and services in June 2022 rose 15.5 percent y/y compared to the previous month. Prices rose 1.5 percent, the Central Statistical Office (GUS) said.

Earlier, in a flash estimate, the GUS said the CPI was 15.6 percent y/y and 1.5 percent m/m. This is not much consolation, given that the difference is within the bounds of statistical error. According to the European Commission, next year, inflation in Poland is expected to be the highest in the EU.
