By Gergely Szakacs BUDAPEST, Sept. 24 (Reuters) – The Hungarian forint hit an eight-week low against the euro on Friday, extending its losses for a third consecutive session, after the central bank slowed the pace of the rise rates despite the increase in its inflation forecasts. At 0801 GMT, the forint was down 0.3%, causing losses in Central Europe and abandoning much of its gains posted this year. The Hungarian and Czech central banks both started to hike rates in June, raising the forint and koruna by about 3% against the euro ahead of the Hungarian rate meeting on Tuesday, when the bank raised rates. 15 basis points lower than expected at 1.65. %. Despite raising its inflation forecast for this and next year, the National Bank of Hungary (NBH) has announced that it will raise rates further in 15 basis point increments, slowing the pace of tightening after three successive hikes. of 30 basis points. The forint has fallen more than 1% against the euro since Tuesday, reducing its gains for the year to 1.6%. Crown gains, meanwhile, still exceed 3% this year as the debate among Czech rate-setters turns to faster tightening. “The BNH is at a stalemate as it is expected to keep raising rates due to high inflation, however, it cannot rise too far as this could trigger a backlash,” a currency trader in Budapest said. “The elections are approaching, a lot of people are in debt and big rate hikes probably wouldn’t be good news for them,” the trader said, adding that the potential risks of the Evergrande crisis spilling out and rising rates. energy prices were also weighing on sentiment. Earlier on Friday, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban said he aimed to speed up an additional month of payment to retirees as he escalated a pre-election spending spree ahead of what promises to be a close ballot at the start of the campaign. next year. Last week, Orban also eased the rules for paying off retail credit card loans and overdrafts under an extended debt moratorium, forcing banks to charge lower interest rates on those loans. . The Polish zloty fell 0.2% at the start of trading, while the koruna was 0.1% weaker. Budapest stocks also underperformed the region, falling 0.45%, with all blue chip stocks slightly in the red.
