(MENAFN) Egypt’s statistics agency said that the country’s core annual inflation in the year to March edged up to 7.04 percent, compared with 6.9 percent in the year to February, Reuters reported.
Earlier, the state statistics agency said that urban inflation, most closely watched indicator of prices, had slowed to 12.2 percent year on year in March from 12.8 percent a month earlier.
