Norway's interest rate path may ease, but NOK a key factor
Sept 16 (Reuters) -Norway's central bank meets this week and there could be scope to lower the interest rate path and possibly hint at a December cut, but despite a slight improvement the weak NOK will continue to underpin a hawkish Norges Bank stance.
Falling interest rates at the European central bank and Bank of England and an expected rate cut from the U.S. Federal Reserve Wednesday, combined with falling domestic inflation, argue the case for a lowering of Norway's rate path. A 15 to 25-basis point adjustment could be seen, pointing to four rate cuts by the end of next year.
However, with the crown significantly weaker versus the EUR since the June Norges Bank meeting, continuing to fan the flames of imported inflation, a no change decision on rates and unchanged rate path remains a likely outcome.
Despite a pullback from the Sept. 11 high of 12.0090 and a decent margin below the Aug. 5 12.1320 and 2024 peak (a high since May 2023) EUR/NOK remains nearly 5.00% above its June 11.2620 low.
On balance there could be room for a lowering of the Norges Bank's rate path this week, but the crown is likely to have the final word.
