Russian FX/Rates - CBR Preview Chartpack

> There are no clear signs that inflation has peaked, while inflation expectations are at multi-year highs and the ruble has weakened. Comments from CBR officials have been increasingly hawkish compared to the June meeting. > The upcoming meeting is a "core" one, and the CBR is set revise upward its 2021 inflation forecast from 4.7-5.2% and also revise higher its average key rate forecasts. Historically, the CBR has often hiked by larger than usual increments at meetings when it has revised upward its inflation forecasts (April 2021, late 2018). > We expect a "one-and-done" scenario, as inflation should finally slow down in August-September. A 6.5% YE key rate is our baseline forecast, while our risk scenario is 7.0%.
