The CPI for the whole year is still projected to meet the set target. |
According to the Center for Industry and Trade Information, the main reason for the 0.29% increase in the CPI in September compared to the previous month was the severe impact of Typhoon No. 3 (Typhoon Yagi), which caused serious damage to agricultural and fisheries production and transportation systems in some northern provinces. This led to localized shortages of food, vegetables, and fruits at certain times, causing prices to rise in some provinces.

A crucial factor for the survival of modern agriculture.(PLVN) - According to the European Union's Regulation on Deforestation Prevention (EUDR), expected to be implemented from the end of 2026, agricultural products such as coffee, rubber, and timber wishing to enter this market must prove their origin down to each individual plot of land where they were produced. These are all sectors with billions of USD in export value for Vietnam; therefore, without accurate geographical location data, Vietnamese agricultural products risk being excluded from a high-end market like Europe.
In addition, some localities are implementing tuition fee increases according to a schedule; housing rental prices are also rising.
Nevertheless, investment, industrial production, and import-export activities nationwide in September 2024 remained quite positive and vibrant. The domestic market quickly stabilized, and the supply of goods was basically ensured, fully and promptly meeting the essential consumption needs of the people.
Therefore, after nine months of 2024, inflation control has achieved quite positive results, with the average CPI increasing by only 3.88% compared to the same period last year, below the inflation control target of 4-4.5%.
However, according to the Center for Industry and Trade Information, geopolitical and economic uncertainties around the world could negatively impact growth and the CPI in the final months of the year.
Conversely, many localities have been rapidly and urgently restoring production and business activities, coupled with the fact that management agencies are ensuring a tight connection between supply and demand for goods, which will reduce the impact on price increases and the consumer price index.
In addition, state management agencies will have appropriate management plans for goods and public services with state-regulated prices, following a market-based roadmap to avoid a cumulative impact on the CPI.

Based on a comprehensive analysis of the influencing factors, the Center for Industry and Trade Information forecasts that the CPI in October 2024 may increase by approximately 0.3% compared to the previous month.
