03-02-2012

The annual inflation rate will exceed the limits of the corridor set by the National Bank and make 5% ±1,5 p.p., Dorin Dragutanu, President of NBM informs. The change in the forecast is determined by slower growth in prices for foods in the context of more negative expectations an global markets; slower rise of regulated price expected starting from the Q1, 2012; stabilization of value of energy sources at global markets.

Deflationary process predicted has started earlier this year caused by the situation in the Euro area. This may lead to less demand at both: regional and global levels, which will result in less value of energy and provision. Anticipating deflationary process and to minimize external and domestic risks, NBM has reduced the basis rate of refinancing from 10% to 6,5% months within last r months. If the economic recession in the euro area globalizes, the deflationary process will continue, Dorin Dragutanu has noted.
