European Union Inflation Rate MoM

In the European Union, the inflation rate is calculated using the weighted average of the Harmonised Index of Consumer Price (HICP) aggregates. The main components of the HICP are: Food and non-alcoholic beverages (17% of the total weight); Housing, water, electricity, gas and other fuels (15%); Transport (15%); Miscellaneous goods and services (10%); Restaurants and hotels (10%); and Recreation and culture (9%). Other categories include Furnishings, household equipment and routine household maintenance (7%); Health (5%); Clothing and footwear (5%). Alcoholic beverages, tobacco and narcotics, Communications and Education account for the remaining 8%. The HICP aggregates are computed as the weighted average of each country’s HICP components. The weight of a country is its share of household final monetary consumption expenditure in the total of the country’s group. The local HICPs are supplied to the Eurostat by the National Statistical Institutes.
