Core conclusion · Tlines extraction

Next week brings rate decisions in Hungary, Turkey and Kazakhstan plus Polish industrial output, labour market and retail sales data. ING expects the National Bank of Hungary to hold, a 100bp Turkish cut to 36%, and a 25bp cut to 16.00% in Kazakhstan on 23 October, though a hold there remains plausible. Slower inflation and weak domestic demand underpin the Turkish call; easing scope is seen as limited.

Key arguments

  • The NBH is expected to hold as geopolitically driven market volatility keeps risk sentiment too fragile for a cut; November easing is possible only if the fiscal situation materially lowers the country risk premium.
  • Turkish inflation data have raised the likelihood of a cut, and fund volatility adds downside risks to activity, though the macro impact is seen as manageable.
  • Poland's manufacturing stays fragile and uneven, with machinery and transport equipment relatively firm while textiles, furniture and autos struggle; PPI inflation should accelerate on refining costs.
  • Kazakhstan's base case is a 25bp cut, but a hold is plausible because the CPI slowdown was overwhelmingly food-driven and rising global core rates argue for high real rates.

Main risks

  • Geopolitical developments keep market volatility high and could delay any Hungarian easing.
  • A renewed acceleration in Kazakh inflation would move it further from the 5% long-term target and argue against cuts.
  • Polish household consumption growth this year is projected to be slower than in 2025 despite resilient spending.

Corresponding source evidence

  1. At the same time, we expect PPI inflation to accelerate further, driven mainly by higher crude oil refining costs.
  2. Nevertheless, household consumption growth this year is projected to be slower than in 2025. · 2025
  3. Regarding fiscal policy, although the central bank is aware of the 2027 budget, as the NBH governor sits on the Fiscal Council that reviews and approves it, no public information will be available on this. · 2027
