Investing.com - Bank of America revised its outlook for Poland’s central bank, now forecasting one additional 25 basis point rate cut in spring 2026 to 3.75%, citing stronger disinflation trends in recent months.
The National Bank of Poland (NBP) is expected to hold rates steady at 4.00% at its upcoming meeting on January 14, according to BofA economist Mai Doan, despite market pricing suggesting an 11 basis point cut for the meeting.
Poland’s December headline inflation eased to 2.4% year-over-year, falling below the central bank’s target, creating a more favorable environment for potential monetary easing.
The improved inflation outlook provides more comfort to the NBP and supports the case for a cautious continuation of the easing cycle, particularly as inflation expectations remain broadly anchored.
The central bank’s monetary policy committee will convene on January 14 to make its first rate decision of 2026, with markets closely watching for signals about the timing of future rate adjustments.
