The Core Consumer Price Index (CPI) is a key measure of the inflation trend in the UK economy, and it's released by the Office for National Statistics. Unlike the standard CPI measure, the Core CPI excludes more volatile items, such as food, energy, alcohol and tobacco, in order to provide a more accurate picture of the underlying inflationary trend. This data is of high importance to market participants, because the CPI and its components influence many areas of economic policy, including interest rate decisions by the Bank of England. If the Core CPI increases at a faster rate than expected, it could signal higher inflationary pressures, potentially leading to policy rate increases and subsequently impacting the value of the pound and UK assets.

The Consumer Price Index (CPI, n.s.a) is an essential economic calendar event for the United Kingdom, providing critical information about the country's inflation status. The CPI measures the change in the prices of a specific basket of goods and services purchased by households over a particular time period. This economic indicator is a vital tool for evaluating the cost of living and purchasing power of consumers across the nation.

As a non-seasonally adjusted (n.s.a) figure, the CPI does not account for seasonal fluctuations in prices, such as holiday periods or seasonal changes in product demand. This allows for a more accurate reflection of current price trends, aiding policymakers and investors in making well-informed financial decisions. A higher-than-expected CPI reading may indicate increasing inflation, potentially leading to higher interest rates and a strengthening currency. Conversely, a lower-than-expected reading may point to a weakening currency and lower interest rates, as policymakers address the potential threat of deflation.

The terms of a standardized loan are formally presented (usually in writing) to each party in the transaction before any money or property changes hands. If a lender requires any collateral, this will be stipulated in the loan documents as well. Most loans also have legal stipulations regarding the maximum amount of interest that can be charged, as well as other covenants such as the length of time before repayment is required. Loans can come from individuals, corporations, financial institutions and governments. They are a way to grow the overall money supply in an economy as well as open up competition, introduce new products and expand business operations. Loans are a primary source of revenue for many financial institutions such as banks, as well as some retailers through the use of credit facilities.

Deposit Facility Rate (Sep)

4.25%

The Deposit Facility Rate is a key monetary policy tool used by the central bank of Indonesia, Bank Indonesia, to control the money supply in the economy. This economic calendar event involves the announcement of the interest rate paid by the central bank to commercial banks for their overnight deposits.

Commercial banks deposit their excess reserves with Bank Indonesia, and they are compensated with an interest known as the Deposit Facility Rate. When the rate is adjusted higher, it incentivizes banks to place more of their excess reserves with the central bank, thus reducing the amount of money available in the economy. Conversely, when the rate is lowered, it discourages banks from depositing excess funds and encourages them to lend more, which stimulates economic activity.

Market participants closely monitor changes in the Deposit Facility Rate since the interest rate decisions can significantly impact the Indonesian Rupiah's exchange rate, inflation, and overall economic growth. Changes in the deposit facility rate can also influence the direction of other short-term interest rates in the country, which then impacts borrowing costs for both businesses and consumers.

Lending Facility Rate (Sep)

5.75%

The Lending Facility Rate event is an important economic calendar indicator in Indonesia that reflects the central bank's policy rate. The rate is set by the Bank of Indonesia and effectively represents the interest rate charged to commercial banks for borrowing funds from the central bank.

Decisions on the lending facility rate are determined after a careful analysis of various factors, including inflation, overall economic growth, and global market conditions. Financial institutions, investors, and businesses closely monitor this rate, as changes can significantly impact the economy.

A higher lending facility rate can lead to increased borrowing costs for commercial banks, which, in turn, can reduce the availability of credit for businesses and consumers, slowing down economic growth. Conversely, a lower rate can stimulate economic activity by making borrowing less expensive, thereby encouraging investment and spending.

The Consumer Price Index (CPI), non-seasonally adjusted, is a measure that assesses changes in the price of goods and services purchased by households in the Euro Zone. As a widely followed indicator, the CPI helps in understanding the inflation rate and the purchasing power of consumers in relation to changes in prices.

For this particular event, the CPI data presented is not seasonally adjusted, which means it doesn't account for fluctuations in prices related to seasonal factors. These factors may include, for example, changes in prices due to holiday seasons or seasonal production cycles. As a result, the non-seasonally adjusted CPI gives a less smoothed estimate of inflation, one that more directly reflects the actual variation in prices experienced by consumers.

Analysts, traders, and policymakers pay close attention to the CPI as it can influence monetary policies, business decisions, and investments. A rising CPI signals increasing inflation, which may lead to changes in interest rates or other policy adjustments aimed at controlling price levels, as well as impacting the value of the Euro and financial market expectations.
