SNB hikes key deposit rate by 50 bps to 1.50%, as widely expected

In its quarterly monetary policy assessment, the Swiss National Bank (SNB) raised its benchmark sight deposit interest rate by 50 basis points (bps) from 1.0% to 1.50% in March, as widely expected.

The SNB raises rates for the fourth straight meeting, with markets now expecting the final hike to come in June.

Summary of the statement

The SNB is tightening its monetary policy further.

In doing so, it is countering the renewed increase in inflationary pressure.

It cannot be ruled out that additional rises in the snb policy rate will be necessary to ensure price stability over the medium term.

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

For some quarters now, the focus has been on selling foreign currency.

SNB sees 2023 swiss growth at around 1 % vs dec forecast for growth around 0.5%.

SNB sees 2023 inflation at 2.6 % (previous forecast was for 2.4%).

SNB sees 2024 inflation at 2.0 % (previous forecast was for 1.8%).

SNB sees 2025 inflation at 2.0%.

SNB sees Q4 2025 inflation at 2.1%.

Market reaction 

In a knee-jerk reaction to the SNB rate hike decision, the USD/CHF pair dropped nearly 40 pips to test 0.9120, down 0.52% 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.
