Key questions
What is the Swiss Consumer Price Index?
The latest complete annual average is 100,4 index points (2025), with December 2025 = 100. The latest monthly observation is 101,5 (2026-09). Monthly values and annual averages refer to different periods.
What is the difference between the price index and inflation?
The index measures prices relative to a base period. Inflation is the percentage change in the index. An index of 100 represents the price level in the base month, not an inflation rate of 100%.
Which index should I use to adjust annual amounts for inflation?
Use the official annual average of the complete consumer basket. RKS includes an annual value only when all twelve monthly observations are available.
Can I combine the CPI with other datasets?
Yes, where Swiss calendar years and the definitions of the amounts are compatible. The source, base period, units and limits of each calculation must be documented.
