Data relating to the Consumer Prices Index (CPI) has shown that UK inflation fell unexpectedly in June.
It had been expected that the figure would remain steady at 4.5%, however it has fallen to 4.2%.
Further to that the Retail Prices Index (RPI), a measure that factors in mortgage interest payments, fell by 0.2% to 5% according to the Office for National Statistics.
Despite the fall the CPI figure was above the Bank of England's target rate, meaning it has been so for thirty-five of the last forty-one months.
