Greek import price index down 12.8 pct in Aug
Greece's industrial import price composite index fell 12.8 pct in August, compared with the same month last year, after a 2.7 pct decline recorded in the 2014-2013 period, Hellenic Statistical Authority said on Wednesday.
The statistics service, in a report, attributed this development to the so-called "imported inflation" to a 0.8 pct decline in the import price index from Eurozone countries and a 22 pct drop in the import price index from countries outside Eurozone in August. The composite index fell 2.2 pct in August from July.
