Public sector net borrowing (excluding public sector banks) in the UK widened to £18.0 billion in August 2025 from £14.4 billion in the same month last year, exceeding market expectations of £12.8 billion. This marked the highest August borrowing since 2020. Total public sector spending increased by £8.4 billion, driven by higher costs of public services, benefits, and debt interest. Meanwhile, total receipts rose by £4.8 billion, reflecting stronger central government tax and National Insurance contribution revenues. Borrowing for the financial year to August reached £83.8 billion, £16.2 billion more than in the same period of 2024 and the second-highest April-to-August total since monthly records began in 1993, after 2020. This was also £11.4 billion higher than the £72.4 billion forecast by the OBR in March. Public sector net debt excluding public sector banks stood at 96.4% of GDP at the end of August.

Producer prices in Germany dropped by 2.2% year-on-year in August 2025, following a 1.5% decline in June and surpassing market expectations of a 1.7% fall. This marked the sixth consecutive month of falling producer prices and the sharpest annual decline since May 2024, when prices fell at the same pace. The overall decrease was largely driven by lower energy costs, which fell 8.5%. Key contributors within the energy sector included natural gas (-11.0%), electricity (-10.8%), and heating oil (-1.8%).

UK Retail Sales Top Forecasts

Malaysian palm oil futures edged higher, hovering near MYR 4,450 per tonne and reversing losses from the previous session. Support came from a weaker ringgit and gains in rival soyoil on the Dalian and Chicago exchanges. The Malaysian Palm Oil Board announced that the October crude palm oil reference price will keep the export duty at 10%. On the demand side, purchases from top buyer India are expected to remain firm ahead of the mid-October festive season. In August, India’s palm oil imports jumped 15.8% to 990,528 tonnes, the highest in over a year, as attractive pricing versus soyoil encouraged refiners to stock up. The Solvent Extractors’ Association of India projected imports above 800,000 tonnes this month. For exports, cargo surveyor Intertek Testing Services reported a 2.6% rise in Malaysian palm oil shipments during the first half of September, while AmSpec Agri Malaysia noted a 0.1% decline. For the week, contracts were little changed, staying subdued amid recent holidays.
