The National Bank of Ukraine decided to postpone the decision on the discount rate for the second consecutive meeting and left it unchanged at 10% on April 14th, 2022, given the large-scale armed assault in Ukraine by Russian forces. The bank said that due to the forced introductions of administrative restrictions, market monetary instruments do not play a significant role in the functioning of the monetary markets, while the bank confirmed foreign exchange rates continued to be fixed. Due to disruption of supply chains and production processes and uneven demand, the NBU estimates inflationary pressures will increase and could exceed 20% at year-end. Meanwhile, civilian casualties, destroyed infrastructure, and the outflow of over 4.7 million refugees led the central bank to estimate that the Ukrainian economy could contract by at least one-third in 2022. source: National Bank of Ukraine

Ukraine Hikes Key Policy Rate to 10%, Above Expectations
The National Bank of Ukraine hiked its policy rate by 100bps to 10% during its January 20th meeting, above market expectations of 9.5%, while announcing it expects to further increase the rate to 11% in 2022 before seeing it back below 10% in 2023. The central bank stated that many pro-inflationary risks have materialized and the decline in prices in the end of 2021 were slower than expected, hence tighter monetary policy is needed to ensure steady disinflation toward the target of 5%. Policymakers also noted that increased geopolitical tensions with Russia in the coming months should push prices higher and hamper growth, revising 2022 inflation expectations to 7.7% from 5% and GDP growth projections from 3.8% to 3.4%. Lastly, the NBU will continue to intervene on the foreign exchange market to smooth excessive currency fluctuation but will refrain from daily purchases on the interbank foreign exchange market to replenish reserves.
