In an increasingly fast-paced world, even old institutions must change and develop

The Central Bureau of Statistics (SCB), which is responsible for reporting the inflation rates in Sweden, has decided that from August or September 2024 a "fast CPI" will be introduced. This value will be a preliminary figure published five working days before regular publication, which will be approximately one week after the end of the month. Detailed indices (eg food and energy price trends) will not be published with "fast CPI", but will continue to be published only with regular CPI.

"Fast CPI" will deviate on average by one hundredth of a percentage point from the regular published CPI inflation rate, according to SCB.
