The BCB leaves the SELIC unchanged at 11%

As widely expected, the monetary authority announced yesterday after financial markets closed in Brazil that policy rates will remain at 11%. We expect the BCB to maintain the SELIC rate at the current level at least until the end of the year. On the one hand, weak growth and the imminence of presidential elections limit the space for any rate hikes. On the other hand, high and increasing inflation leaves practically no room for a monetary easing ahead.
