Producer prices for services went up in July-September

According to Statistics Finland, producer prices for services went up by 2.9 per cent in the third quarter of 2006 from the corresponding quarter of the year before. The rise in the prices was mostly due to increases in the prices of goods transport by road, scheduled air transport and technical services from the corresponding quarter of the previous year. The rise in the prices was curbed most by falls in the prices of telecommunication.

From the previous quarter, producer prices for services rose by 0.6 per cent. This was mainly due to higher prices of goods transport by road and scheduled air transport services.
