Romania Government Bond 10Y

The National Bank of Romania kept its policy rate unchanged at 6.50% and reinforced a hawkish stance, according to Societe Generale strategists, who said earlier inflation risks are now part of the baseline. The French bank's analysts framed the decision as supportive of Romanian Leu assets, pointing to coalition hopes as a factor behind the currency's outlook. The NBR's move leaves the benchmark rate at its existing level while signaling a firmer tone on inflation. Societe Generale's assessment ties the central bank's stance directly to the prospects for RON-denominated assets.
