-- 儘管瑞銀上調了通膨預期並維持經濟成長預期不變,但仍表示預計加拿大央行今年將維持利率不變。 瑞銀在致客戶的報告中寫道,加拿大央行的最新訊號與其對政策利率的謹慎態度相符。 瑞銀指出,3月政策會議的討論摘要也反映了謹慎的態度。 瑞銀表示,經濟成長放緩以及企業和消費者信心已受到一定程度的抑制,這給加拿大央行帶來了兩難的境地。 3月份會議的信號表明,加拿大央行將忽略能源成本上漲對通膨的直接影響,但在考慮適當的政策立場時,會密切關注價格壓力擴大的跡象。 會議紀要承認經濟起點較低:“伊朗戰爭無疑增加了新的不確定性,但與會者一致認為,不應忽視經濟面臨的其他風險:美國貿易政策的變化、即將進行的《加美墨協定》審查以及持續的結構性變革。” 3月份的會議討論還參考了加拿大央行副行長莎倫·科齊基(Sharon Kozicki)近期關於央行如何看待供給側衝擊的講話:「成員們探討了供給衝擊衝擊經濟時貨幣政策的作用。他們指出,能源價格上漲帶來的通脹壓力預計將推高通脹率,而經濟又處於艱難供給過剩狀態。
