Breaking: SNB unexpectedly hikes rates to -0.25% vs. -0.75% previous

In its latest quarterly monetary policy assessment, the Swiss National Bank (SNB) hiked its benchmark sight deposit interest rate to -0.25% from -0.75% previous.

The SNB surprised markets to the upside by raising the key rates by 50 bps, in an unprecedented move. 

Summary of the statement

The SNB is tightening its monetary policy and is raising the SNB policy rate and the interest rate on sight deposits at the SNB by half a percentage point to -0.25% to counter increased inflationary pressure.

The tighter monetary policy is aimed at preventing inflation from spreading more broadly to goods and services in Switzerland.

To ensure appropriate monetary conditions, the SNB is also willing to be active in the foreign exchange market as necessary.

It cannot be ruled out that further increases in the SNB policy rate will be necessary in the foreseeable future to stabilise inflation in the range consistent with price stability over the medium term.

Market reaction

USD/CHF slumped over one big figure in a delayed reaction to the 50 bps SNB rate hike. The pair is now trading at 0.9876, down 0.60% on the day.

Upozorenje o rizicima

Izvršenje trgovinskih operacija sa finansijskim instrumentima upotrebom marginalne trgovine pruža velike mogućnosti i omogućava investitorima ostvarivanje visokih prihoda. Međutim, takav vid trgovine povezan je sa potencijalno visokim nivoom rizika od gubitka sredstava. Проведение торговых операций на финанcовых рынках c маржинальными финанcовыми инcтрументами открывает широкие возможноcти, и позволяет инвеcторам, готовым пойти на риcк, получать выcокую прибыль, но при этом неcет в cебе потенциально выcокий уровень риcка получения убытков. Iz tog razloga je pre započinjanja trgovine potrebno odlučiti o izboru odgovarajuće investicione strategije, uzimajući u obzir raspoložive resurse.
