The TRY/USD maintained its stability during early trading this morning. Investors followed the Turkish Central Bank’s updates on inflation expectations in the country, as the bank’s analysts raised inflation expectations in Turkey during the remaining months of the current year from to 58% compared to the 22.3% in the bank's previous expectations.
At the same time, the bank revised its inflation expectations for the next year, as it is expected to reach 33%, compared to the previous forecast, which was at 8.8%. The new inflation expectations, which are disappointing, come despite the efforts made by the Central Bank of Turkey at the present time to tighten monetary policy, according to which interest rates have been increased over two consecutive meetings, in conjunction with the adoption of some measures aimed at placing restrictions on lending and withdrawing large liquidity from the Turkish lira in banks.
In this regard, investors followed the statements of the Governor of the Central Bank of Turkey, Hafiza Ghaya Arkan, which was issued this morning, Thursday, in which she said that the central bank began a period of monetary tightening with the aim of controlling and reducing inflation, as we will work to gradually strengthen this policy whenever the need arises. Arkan also added that the central bank will use all available tools to work on price stability, while continuing to approve selective measures regarding loans. Finally, the governor of the central bank commented on inflation expectations, saying that inflation will show a rise, which she described as temporary in the short term.
