Polish central bank seen keeping rates unchanged this week- Reuters poll

The National Bank of Poland (NBP) is expected to keep its main interest rate steady at 5.75% on Wednesday, a Reuters poll showed, as inflation stands near double the central bank target. NBP Governor Adam Glapinski reiterated last week that Poland's elevated inflation currently left no grounds for policy easing. Poland's annual inflation accelerated in February to 4.9%, less than expected due to changes in the baskets used to calculate price growth, according to economists, who see it increasing further in March.
