Analysis: Despite Trump's tariffs, central bank unlikely to cut rates below zero
-
最新报道：According to a report by Bijie.com, Karsten Junius, an analyst at asset management firm J. Safra Sarasin Sustainable, stated that despite the severe impact of high US trade tariffs on the Swiss economy, the Swiss National Bank is unlikely to cut interest rates below zero. The SNB cut its benchmark interest rate to zero in June due to strong demand for the Swiss franc, which offset headwinds facing the country's main exports. These headwinds were exacerbated by President Trump's announcement that he would unexpectedly impose a steep 39% tariff on Swiss imports. However, despite the tariff blow, the SNB is likely reluctant to cut interest rates below zero. Inflation in Switzerland has exceeded expectations, and the zero interest rate policy has already stimulated economic activity. Furthermore, further rate cuts would fuel US accusations of currency manipulation by the SNB.
