NBP To Announce Rate Decision

POLAND
  • All eyes are on the National Bank of Poland today, which is expected to keep interest rates unchanged. Speculation that the central bank might formalise the end of its rate-hike cycle and the imminent release of fresh macroeconomic forecasts are what make this meeting perhaps the most significant one in recent months. There is no fixed time for the release of the statement, but the NBP typically gives notice shortly before announcing its rate decision and the subsequent publication of the statement. Governor Adam Glapinski's press conference has been confirmed for 15:00CET/14:00GMT tomorrow. We have discussed the main things to watch in the NBP announcement in more detail in our comprehensive preview, which also includes a summary of sell-side views and the central bank's previous macroeconomic projection.
