She wrote in an article for radiomaryja.pl that this process is not mature yet, which means that there is a risk of a return to monetary tightening, although the odds are high that it will be possible to avoid it. She sees a chance that the room for interest-rate cuts opens in 2024 or potentially near the end of 2023, adding that any initial cut would likely entail a phase of monetary easing.
