CZECHIA
EM BulletBulletEmerging Market NewsCentral and Eastern EuropeCzechia
  • Denik N reported that the chances of ANO's Karel Havlicek to become the next Czech Prime Minister are falling after his recent comments angered party leader Andrej Babis. Havlicek is technically Ano's shadow prime minister and his position within the party improved after he managed to deliver a convincing but unexpected victory in Central Bohemia in last year's regional elections. However, some of his recent public comments have raised eyebrows at a time when ANO is seeking to consolidate its front-runner position ahead of the high-stakes autumn parliamentary election.
  • The CZSO will release final January CPI data tomorrow morning. Flash readings were published hours before last week's CNB rate decision, with the headline rate printing at +2.8% Y/Y.
