Overview
Italy's consumer price index stood at 137.12 in 2025, a rise of +7.24 from 2024. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 137.12 by 2025. Italy ranked 141st globally.
Italy’s consumer price index (CPI) has risen from a base‑year level of 4.15 in 1960 to an all‑time peak of 137.12 in 2025, a 33‑fold increase over 66 years that places the country at rank 141 globally. The sharp upward trajectory accelerated after the early 2000s, reflecting persistent euro‑area inflation pressures and domestic wage dynamics, and culminated in the 2025 figure that matches Malta’s CPI of 137.12 and Korea’s identical level, while only slightly below Spain’s 138.26. By contrast, the low point of 4.15 in 1960 underscores the dramatic price‑level transformation Italy has experienced since the post‑war reconstruction era. The near‑parity with other high‑CPI peers suggests that Italy’s inflation environment is now aligned with broader European and Asian trends, yet any substantial fiscal tightening or supply‑side reforms could moderate the upward path, potentially easing the CPI’s future growth rate.
