WOOD Flash – Turkey macro: CBT on hold, with narrowing room to ease going forward

The Monetary Policy Committee at the CBT has decided to keep the policy rate (1W repo rate) unchanged at 19%, in line with both the consensus expectations and what we were anticipating. As before, the statement reiterated the pledge to maintain the policy rate above inflation, until indicators point strongly to a permanent fall in inflation and the medium-term 5% target is achieved. The MPC has kept the policy rate unchanged at 19% since April, and we expect a cumulative 400bps worth of rate cuts by end-2022E, with increasing upside risks, which could erode the room to ease significantly.
