HUNGARY
- The National Bank of Hungary is expected keep its base rate unchanged at 6.50% following a further surge in inflation in December, with the decision likely to be accompanied by continued hawkish communication.
- Improving global risk sentiment and the associated recovery in HUF will be welcomed by policymakers, but domestic challenges mean no change to the base rate is expected until Q2-2025 at the earliest.
- Among sell-side, no analyst view we have surveyed expect to see any change to the base rate this month.
