Saudi Arabia’s inflation eased from an 18-month peak in September as consumer price growth slowed to 5.9 percent on an annual basis in September, from 6.1 percent in the previous month.

Month-on-month, the cost of living rose 0.5 percent in September, the same pace seen in the previous month, although food price growth cooled from its August peak.
