South Korea September Export Price Growth Drops to 40.9%

Global Markets5 days ago

The import price index for goods entering South Korea rose 17.6% year-on-year in September, an acceleration from the 15.6% increase seen in the prior period. During the same month, the export price index rose 40.9%, which marks a deceleration from the 42.4% growth recorded in the previous measurement.

The figures, released October 15, indicate a divergence in price trends as inflation for imported materials climbs while the pace of price increases for exports moderates. Both indices are tracked as primary indicators of trade cost pressures and margins for the economy.
