What happened
Kiwibank stated that New Zealand petrol and diesel prices are likely to remain under pressure this week due to high global oil prices. Diesel prices have risen to their highest level since around May, reaching $3.18 NZD ($1.8 USD) a liter, according to fuel-monitoring site Gaspy. The price of 91-octane unleaded petrol has increased over 15 percent in the past month, nearing the $3.5 NZD level.

Why it matters
Kiwibank noted that high refined fuel prices from Singapore are concerning for the outlook in New Zealand over the coming months. The energy supply shock is driving up inflation fears, which are compounded by interest rate differentials and a weaker New Zealand dollar.
