Ruling Party Prepares More Election Pledges, NBP To Publish Minutes Of May Meeting

POLAND
  • A senior official with the ruling Law and Justice told Super Express that his party, the right-wing Sovereign Poland and the populist Kukiz '15 will maintain their alliance known as the United Right and are preparing for talks on election lists for the upcoming parliamentary election. The coming months may also bring more campaign pledges, with Law and Justice reportedly considering vowing to lower the retirement age. Its leader Jaroslaw Kaczynski recently told trade unionists that that the "road is open" to implementing flexible retirement age based on time spent in employment.
  • The NBP will publish the minutes of its May monetary policy meeting later today. The document should not have much impact on markets, given its backward-looking nature. As a reminder, at its most recent monetary policy meeting earlier this week (our comprehensive review is forthcoming), the central bank extended its pause in interest-rate action.
  • The Cabinet will discuss updates to the 2023 budget at a special meeting at 09:00BST/10:00CEST, with Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki and Finance Minister Magdalena Rzeczkowska set to hold a press conference around 40 minutes later.
