Rising prices and economic uncertainty linked to the conflict in the Middle East are putting pressure on household budgets across the world.

The International Monetary Fund has warned the conflict is pushing up the cost of energy and food, increasing borrowing costs and weighing on economic growth. Surveys suggest millions of households are already making changes to cope – cutting back, dipping into savings or taking on debt.

We would like to hear how you are adjusting your finances in response.

Have you changed your spending habits? Are you using savings more often, borrowing money or putting off big purchases? Are you making different choices when shopping? You might also have taken practical steps such as switching energy providers, cancelling subscriptions or working extra hours. We’d like to hear about it.
