Consumer price inflation in Italy softened as initially estimated in October to the lowest level in a year, the latest data from the statistical office showed on Monday.
Consumer price inflation slowed to 1.2 percent in October from 1.6 percent in September. That was in line with the flash data published on October 31.
The slowdown in inflation was largely due to a 0.5 percent fall in prices of regulated energy products, which grew 13.9 percent in September.
