2023 Breakeven Inflation Down 25bps To 3.62% In The Past Week

POLAND
  • Sell-side institutions have recently upgraded their inflation forecasts slightly higher for 2021 and 2022; economists expect CPI inflation to end up at 3.35% by year-end and then fall back to 2.95% at the end of 2022.
  • Recently, a rising number of policymakers have mentioned that the inflationary pressures could persist longer than expected in the coming months, with some MPC members forecasting inflation to average 4% this year (or maybe even higher).
  • Interestingly, the 2023 breakeven inflation (white line) has consolidated by 25bps to 3.62% in the past week; we will see if the trend continues in the coming weeks and if the market-implied measure of inflation expectations falls back within the 1.5%-3.5% NBO tolerance band.
  • If inflationary pressures start to ease in the second half of this year (as Governor Glapinski mentioned in his recent speeches), then we would expect the NBP to keep rates steady until the end of Q1 2022 (when the MPC term ends).
