MEXICO
- Banxico’s governing board cut the overnight rate by 25bp to 10.00%, in line with most analyst forecasts, in a unanimous decision.
- The Board continued to highlight the decline in core inflation and downside risks to growth, as it signalled the possibility of stepping up the easing pace in coming meetings.
- However, upward revisions to the inflation trajectory offset the dovish rhetoric, and the unanimity points to a prudent committee, acknowledging risks from both a more hawkish Fed and risks associated with the incoming US administration.
- Analysts are split over whether conditions will be met to accelerate the easing pace at all.
