The increase in the producer prices for manufactured goods was particularly attributable to risen prices of manufacturing of basic metals, oil products and chemicals and chemical products from November 2016.

Export prices were, in particular, boosted by higher prices of manufacturing of basic metals and oil products from November 2016. The rising of the prices was curbed particularly by fallen cost of paper and paper board. The rise in import prices was, in turn, especially caused by higher prices of oil products and metal ores from last year's November. The rising of the prices was curbed above all by falls in the prices of electricity.

From October to November, producer prices for manufactured goods went up by 0.6 per cent. The rise was mainly due to increased prices of oil products from the previous month.
