The year-on-year change in consumer prices was 9.1 per cent in November, according to Statistics Finland.

In October, inflation stood at 8.3 per cent.

Consumer prices were raised most in November by increases in the price of electricity and average interest rate on housing loans as well as increases in the prices of diesel and consumer credits from one year ago.

The rising of consumer prices from one year back was curbed most by reductions in the prices of non-refundable prescription medicines.

The month-on-month change of consumer prices was 1.2 per cent.
