2026.03.2008:30:00UTC+00Hong Kong Inflation Quickens in February as CPI Rises 0.5% Month-on-Month

Hong Kong’s consumer price inflation picked up in February 2026, with the Consumer Price Index (CPI) rising 0.50% month-on-month, up from a 0.20% increase in January. The latest data, updated on 20 March 2026, indicate a clear acceleration in price growth compared with the previous month.

On a month-over-month basis, the “actual” February reading reflects how prices moved compared with January, while the “previous” figure captures January’s change versus December. The move from 0.20% in January to 0.50% in February suggests mounting price pressures in the Hong Kong economy, which market participants will monitor closely for signals on consumer demand and potential policy implications.
