Scotiabank Previews Monday's Producer Prices in Canada
BY MT Newswires | ECONOMIC | 10/20/25 06:52 AM EDT06:52 AM EDT, 10/20/2025 (MT Newswires) -- Canada will publish the September industrial producer price index (IPPI) and the raw materials price index (RMPI) at 8:30 a.m. ET on Monday, said Scotiabank.
Producer prices are an indirect possible measure of ultimate consumer price inflation that the Bank of Canada is mandated to manage at 2% over the medium term, noted Scotiabank.
Seasonally unadjusted industrial product prices have been rising more quickly than normal over the past three months to August with prices up 4% year over year and on a two-year upswing with September's figures coming on Monday, stated the bank. Excluding energy, industrial prices are up by almost 5% year over year and led by metal products (20.5% year over year) and a broad array of other prices at lower rates of increase.
Scotiabank expect this to continue on a trend basis, but key is pass through to consumer prices which is highly uncertain and quite limited to date.
