WOOD Flash – Turkey macro: do not expect big changes post rate hike

The central bank of Turkey (CBT) has raised the late liquidity window by 75bps to 13.50%, but has kept the other interest rate tools unchanged. The tone of the comments released to the market erred on the hawkish front, signalling that more measures may be put in place if inflation risks continue to mount. Our assessment of Turkey has not changed materially after this announcement and global growth changes in the coming quarters are likely to be more important than the CBT’s decisions in our view. We continue to see meaningful depreciation risks ahead. Our trade model suggests that a major growth slowdown would be needed to stabilise the trade deficit at the current exchange rate level.
