In early September 2026, diesel prices in Bosnia and Herzegovina were projected to rise due to global market volatility. The Group for Oil and Petroleum Derivatives reported that world exchange prices for diesel increased by approximately 20 fenings per liter. Consequently, local prices, which were previously between 3.41 and 3.49 KM per liter, were expected to increase by 10 to 15 fenings, potentially reaching 3.60 KM per liter.
