Analysts Expect NBH 1W Depo Rate To Remain Unchanged Despite HUF Weakness

HUNGARY
  • Analysts expect the NBH to leave its 1W depo rate unchanged at 6.15% despite the recent HUF weakness following Orban’s victory last week.
  • EURHUF has been trading close to the 380 level in the past week after surging by nearly 10 figures following the election.
  • Political uncertainty has been weighing on HUF, which is the ‘riskier’ currency in the CEE region.
  • It is likely that the NBH will keep the 1W depo rate steady until its ‘core’ policy meeting on April 26.
  • Short term support to watch on EURHUF stands at 375.10.
  • On the topside, resistance to watch above 380 stands at 381.60, which corresponds to the 38.2% Fibo retracement of the 352.40 – 399.60 range.
