MNI Banxico Preview - August 2022

MEXICO
  • A little under two hours until the August Banxico decision
  • Banxico are expected to raise rates by 75bps from 7.75 to 8.50% at the August meeting.
  • Ongoing pressures to headline and core inflation, rising inflation expectations and the Fed’s hawkish stance all warrant a continuation of the aggressive pace of tightening seen in June.
  • The decision is expected by all surveyed analysts and would be in line with the central bank’s most recent guidance.
  • Despite this, focus will turn to any signals within the statement regarding the depth of the current cycle and whether a hike of the same magnitude can be expected in September.
