韩国央行周二公布的数据显示，韩国8月份进口价格连续第三个月下降，韩元走强在一定程度上抵消了中东冲突导致的油价上涨的影响，
根据韩国央行（BOK）的初步数据，上月进口价格指数环比下跌2.4%，此前7月份环比下降1.0%，6月份环比下跌4.2%。
韩国央行表示，进口价格环比下降，原因是韩元兑美元在一个月内升值6.1%，一定程度上抵消了韩国基准原油 —— 迪拜原油价格 15.6% 的环比涨幅。
韩国央行数据显示，8月原材料价格环比上涨1.5%，同期中间品价格则下跌4%。
韩国央行称，进口价格是影响通胀的核心因素，它会沿着整个供应链传导，影响生产成本与居民消费价格。
数据显示，8月份出口价格指数环比下降3.7%，为自2022年12月以来的最大降幅，当时由于韩元走强，该指数下跌了6.1%。
