Swiss Central Bank Vice President: Switzerland may avoid deflation

Jin10 data, August 27 - Swiss Central Bank Vice President Martin stated that despite the uncertainties regarding tariffs facing the Swiss economy, the country may avoid deflation. He also mentioned that due to the side effects of negative interest rates, policymakers will continue to impose a higher threshold for further cuts in borrowing costs. "At this stage, we do not see any risk of deflation developing, and our projections indicate that inflation will surge in the coming quarters. The inflation dynamics in Switzerland are unlikely to be severely affected by the recent movements of the US dollar."
