The Monetary Policy Committee considers the 225 basis point cut in the Central Bank's key interest rates appropriate for maintaining a suitable monetary policy stance. This aims to anchor inflation expectations and support the anticipated downward trend of inflation. The Committee will continue to assess its monetary tightening decisions (period and intensity) at each meeting, emphasizing their dependence on expectations, associated risks, and incoming data. Furthermore, the Committee will closely monitor economic and financial developments and their potential impact on economic indicators. It stands ready to use all available tools to achieve price stability by steering inflation towards its target of 7% ± 2 percentage points in the fourth quarter of 2026.
