- 89% of respondents expected a hold in April, 9.8% a 25bps hike to 4.00%.
- 67% of respondents expected a hold in June, 24.7% a 25bps hike to 4.00%.

The overwhelming expectation for a hold in April, with only a small percentage anticipating a hike, signals cautious sentiment among market participants ahead of the decision.
