Inflation:

The underlying trend of inflation declined in March.
Leading indicators suggest a slight increase in the underlying trend in April.
Amid geopolitical developments and the resulting uncertainties, energy prices remain elevated and exhibit notable volatility.
While indicators point to a slowdown in economic activity, potential second-round effects of recent developments on the inflation outlook will be of importance.

Policy:

The tight monetary policy stance, which will be maintained until price stability is achieved, will strengthen the disinflation process through demand, exchange rate, and expectation channels.

Context

Despite recent indications of declining inflation, the central bank acknowledges potential upward pressures from geopolitical uncertainties and energy prices, suggesting that policymakers are cautious about the inflation outlook moving forward. This stance reinforces a focus on disinflation while navigating economic slowdown risks, which may impact asset flows in the region.
