巴西央行在6月份的会议上将其Selic利率上调25个基点至15%,理由是持续的通货膨胀和未固定的预期。董事会强调,在美国贸易和财政政策以及全球金融市场波动的推动下,外部环境高度不确定,这继续给新兴经济体带来压力。在国内,虽然经济活动和劳动力市场保持弹性,但最近的数据显示,整体和核心通胀高于目标,对2025年和2026年的预期也超过了目标。Copom对2026年通胀的预测为3.6%,反映了持续的通胀风险,包括强劲的服务业通胀、政策驱动的汇率压力和未固定的长期预期。委员会表示,这可能是当前周期的最后一次加息,等待对过去紧缩政策滞后效应的重新评估。然而,Copom强调,如果通胀不向目标趋同,它准备进一步调整政策。
The Central Bank of Brazil hiked its Selic rate by 25bps to 15% at its June meeting, citing persistent inflation and unanchored expectations. The Board highlighted a highly uncertain external environment, driven by US trade and fiscal policies and volatile global financial markets, which continue to weigh on emerging economies. Domestically, while economic activity and the labor market remain resilient, recent data show headline and core inflation above target, with expectations for 2025 and 2026 also exceeding the goal. Copom’s projection for 2026 inflation stands at 3.6%, reflecting ongoing inflationary risks, including strong services inflation, policy-driven exchange rate pressures, and unanchored long-term expectations. The committee signaled this may be the last hike in the current cycle, pending a reassessment of the lagging effects of past tightening. However, Copom emphasized its readiness to adjust policy further if inflation does not converge toward target.
