Infometrics預測,紐西蘭儲備銀行預計將在2027年年中將官方現金利率(OCR)上調至4%。

-- 根據Infometrics週五發布的報告顯示,新西蘭儲備銀行(RBNZ)預計將在今年上調官方現金利率(OCR)三次,首次上調從7月開始,到2027年年中OCR將達到4%,並在2028年上半年達到4.5%。 Infometrics預測,燃油價格上漲將推動第二季通膨率達到4.8%,這是中東衝突的直接後果,紐西蘭儲備銀行對此幾乎無能為力。 該經濟預測機構補充道,即使燃油價格在下半年有所回落,預計到2027年3月通膨率仍將達到3.9%,到2027年12月將降至3%,燃油價格飆升的第二輪影響將在未來幾季持續波及整個經濟。 Infometrics首席預測師加雷斯·基爾南表示:“我們現在預計今年家庭支出僅增長0.8%,比衝突前的預測低了整整兩個百分點。” Infometrics表示,假設紐西蘭的燃料供應不會受到嚴重或長期的干擾,預計國內生產毛額(GDP)將成長1.3%,低於先前預期的2.5%。但該公司補充說,政府的燃料應對計畫可能會在某個階段升級到第二階段或第三階段。 基爾南表示,預計今年家庭支出僅成長0.8%,比先前預期低了兩個百分點。
