Core conclusion · Tlines extraction

Nomura forecasts fewer rate hikes than markets price, viewing this as a resumption of hiking cycles with policy rates near or above neutral and inflation largely cost-push. It expects a Fed hike in December then an extended hold, two ECB hikes to a 3.00% depo rate, two BOJ hikes to 1.75%, none for the BoE or BoC, and two each for Korea and India. Asia ex-Japan stays hawkish on oil, El Niño and memory prices.

Key arguments

  • Global hiking cycles are resuming, not starting, as most policy rates are near or above neutral and inflation is largely cost-push.
  • Nomura expects fewer hikes than markets across the Fed, ECB, BOJ, BoE, BoC, Australia, India and Korea.
  • US growth stays robust on business investment and consumption, keeping core PCE above 3% and tilting inflation risks up.
  • Japan's core CPI follows three stages to around 2% by 2028, with the second stage determining the BOJ terminal rate.

Key numbers

Fed hike expected
25bp in December 2026, then hold through 2027
ECB depo rate target
3.00% after hikes in December 2026 and March 2027
BOJ policy rate target
1.75% after hikes in December 2026 and March 2027 (60% probability)
Korea terminal rate
3.50% after two more hikes
US core PCE
above 3% year-on-year

Main risks

  • Renewed Middle East tensions could keep oil prices elevated and cause broader inflation spillovers.
  • Inflation forecasts may be wrong if second-round wage effects emerge, forcing more hikes.
  • China's weak domestic demand and limited stimulus could drag regional growth.

Corresponding source evidence

  1. We expect the Fed to deliver another hike in December.
  2. We see Japan’s core CPI evolving in three stages towards 2028, with the second critical in determining the terminal policy rate. · 2028
  3. With sticky in flation and a renewed rise in oil prices, we have incorporated additional rate hikes into our global monetary policy forecasts, though still signi ficantly fewer than what markets are pricing.
