The report notes a substantial reduction in real wages by 27.6% year-over-year.
In addition, among the factors influencing the inflation slowdown is a seasonal increase in the supply of fruit and vegetables, as well as fading effects of hryvnia devaluation, which was seen early this year, according to the report.
The NBU noted that prices of fruit and vegetables in June decreased by 2.3% and 2.6%, respectively, and as these goods account for a significant share in the group of "raw food" and "foodstuffs", which translated into decelerating dynamics of the indices of these groups in June by 0.7% and 0.2%, respectively.
As UNIAN reported earlier, inflation in Ukraine in June 2015 slowed to 0.4% against 2.2% in May 2015. The statistical data doesn't include information from the annexed Crimea and the city of Sevastopol, and the Anti-Terrorist Operation zone in eastern Ukraine.
