Corporate sector expects easing of inflation pressures

The results of the June Ninamedia survey indicate that, having fallen from 6.0% in February, one-year ahead inflation expectations of the corporate sector stayed unchanged at 5.0% for the fourth month in a row, announced the National Bank of Serbia (NBS).

Two- and three-year ahead inflation expectations of the corporate sector amounted in June to 5.0% and 4.5%, respectively. The survey results show that both financial and corporate sectors expect inflationary pressures to ease further in the period ahead.

On the other hand, one-year ahead inflation expectations of the financial sector amounted to 3.7% in June, receding from the previous month (3.9%) and getting closer to the NBS target midpoint. The financial sector reported somewhat lower inflation expectations (3.5%) in the latest, July Bloomberg survey.

Inflation expectations of the financial sector for two and three years ahead are at the NBS target midpoint (3.0%), as two-year ahead expectations declined from the May 3.2%.
