Neutral monetary policy stance continues as resilient growth and food-fuel inflation risks require close macroeconomic monitoring.

CPI inflation increased mainly because of food and fuel pressures, while underlying inflation remained moderate. The Committee considered that price pressures were not yet generalised and reaffirmed its commitment to align inflation with the target.
