Briefings

Brazil's official inflation preview for October 2025 reached 0.32%, a significant drop from the previous month's 0.7%. This result brings the 12-month IPCA-15 index to 4.62%, exceeding the government's 4.5% tolerance threshold. The data covers the period from September 16 to October 14, 2025, and includes specific product group impacts such as food rising 1.01% and housing declining 0.10% due to energy costs. A key unknown is whether the October IPCA-15 full release will match this preview figure.

Key points

• The official inflation preview for October 2025 was 0.32%, a decrease of 0.38 percentage points from the September 2025 figure of 0.70%.
• The 12-month IPCA-15 index accumulated 4.62% in October 2025, surpassing the government's 4.5% tolerance threshold for inflation.

Context

The IBGE released the October 2025 inflation preview on October 23, 2025, covering the period from September 16 to October 14. This data helps assess if Brazil's inflation is stabilizing after a period of high growth, with the 12-month index now exceeding the government's 4.5% tolerance limit.

Limitations

The evidence is limited to the October 2025 inflation preview and September 2025 data; the full October IPCA-15 release has not yet been published. The evidence does not include forecasts or expert opinions, only official IBGE statistics and product group impacts.
