UK inflation expected to fall to 6.5% in September

Fall from 6.7% in August signals prices are still rising as higher cost of oil feeds through

Headline inflation eased again in September, official figures are expected to show this week, while pay growth is slowing.

Economists polled by Refinitiv expect the Office for National Statistics (ONS) to say annual inflation fell slightly to 6.5% in September from 6.7% in August. However, that is still well above the Bank of England's 2% target.
